Synopsis

In The Story of America, the author draws on deep scholarship and writes in a concise, fluid style to recount the upheavals on the North American continent from Columbus's discovery of the New World through the 1930s. The book gives a detailed account of the formation, founding, and development of the United States. It offers thorough coverage of historical events, Western civilization, the impact of technological inventions on human life, and American political life. Rich in content, supported by extensive research, and broad in scope, it offers more than a typical book on American history.
