Worth: points - Particulars)


Classics stand the check of time, and Alistair Cooke’s historical past of America is a traditional.
Practically three a long time have handed for the reason that unique version of
America — based mostly on journalist-historian Cooke’s terribly standard thirteen-part tv collection — bought greater than one million copies. But Cooke’s view of America’s dynamic previous and its impression upon the always-changing current continues to supply placing insights into the singular character of a nation.
These thirty years since award-winning
America first rose to the highest of best-seller lists have themselves wrought additional dramatic modifications. Presidents have been impeached, economies have toppled, empires have collapsed, and towers have fallen. In mild of such occasions, Cooke has written for this re-creation a compelling introduction and last chapter that deliver his story of America updated with the knowledge of the inimitably grand outdated man of correspondents.
And what a narrative this guide tells. From the invention of America by European explorers to trendy instances; from the fighters for independence to the pioneers who tamed the West; from the slaves who fled to freedom to the huddled lots that sought a brand new life within the New World. And thru all of it, Cooke describes the important forces that make America work so vitally. Up to date in mild of the September eleventh tragedy, this re-creation is complimented with full-color illustrations all through.
