Summary	In the election of 1872, the conflict between President U.S. Grant and Horace Greeley has been typically understood as a battle for the soul of the Republican Party. In this study, Andrew Slap argues that the campaign was more than a narrow struggle between party elites and a class-based radical reform movement.
