They Created America

About This Novel

One of the 75 must-read business books recommended by "Fortune" magazine, highly recommended by Isaacson, author of "The Biography of Steve Jobs" and Zhou Hongyi, Chairman of 360 There has never been a history of America quite like Harold Evans's long-awaited "They Made America." With his power and persuasiveness, his "American Century" has become a best-seller, and now Evans tells us the epic story of the men and women who made America the past two centuries. These innovators come to life through Evans' vivid narrative and more than five hundred unforgettable photographs and illustrations. We see frontiersman John Fisher nearly dying at the hands of Indians, inspiring him to invent the first steamship; we see Orville and Wilbur Wright in their shop, hand-stitching the wings of flying machines; we see Gary Kildare developing the operating system that will lay the foundation for Bill Gates' empire. Evans strings together hundreds of such innovators, inventors, and entrepreneurs to form the main thread of American history.
