My recommendation is _Democracy and the Organization of Political Parties_; vol 2; Moishe Ostrogorskii. This book was published about 1905 and some things have changed, but I think it is still pertinent. Vol 1 is on the British party system, Vol 2 on the American.

You know, Max, sometimes I can't tell if you are serious or kidding. Naked Lunch is possible isn't it?
