The First Gun Salute: the American Revolution from Another Perspective

On November 16, 1776, the rumble of cannons was heard from an inconspicuous fortress on the Dutch island of St. Eustatius. This was a response to the customary salute fired by the American warship "Andrew Doria" when it entered a foreign port. Although the salute was weak, it announced for the first time the most significant event of that century - the birth of a new country destined to change the course of history. Barbara W. Tuchman writes about the American Revolution from a new perspective in this work. She writes not only about Washington and the bloody soldiers, but also about the frustration and decadence of British general Rodney, and the assistance provided by France and the Netherlands for their own complicated reasons. In the words of George Washington, the United States "seems to have been specially designed by God to demonstrate the greatness and happiness of mankind." However, mankind does not move toward freedom as steadily as it praises. Between truth and endless falsehoods, the restraint of reason seems to be eternal.

In the end, the ruins carrying that era were left here, watching the fateful human history.

If the politicians in historical tragedies were not so stupid, would the world that has disappeared have another look? In this work, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Barbara W.

From this, she examines four famous and classic examples of government folly in history: the Trojan War, the schism caused by the Renaissance popes, the unrealistic policies of George III of England in the American colonies, and America's self-deception in Vietnam. In this book, Tuchman reproduces the characters, scenes and events that are either tragic or absurd with his consistently detailed narration and words with tension and liveness.

In this incisive, concise work, popular American history writer Barbara W. Tuchman explores the historian's craft and many historical events. It contains Tuchman's thoughtful reflections on the role of the historian, astonishing insights into America's past and present, and her penetrating observations of international events - Tuchman always looks at history in a unique way and draws lessons from what she sees. The articles in this book span more than forty years, and Tuchman touches on a series of eclectic topics: Israel, China, Roosevelt's campaign train, the Freudian interpretation of Woodrow Wilson... These talented articles condense and present the "historical skills" that he has spent his entire life pondering. Should historians be artists? The conscious use of artistic techniques should certainly be one of his tools. Macaulay described himself as half poet, half philosopher. I don't expect to reach his level in either aspect. I consider myself a storyteller, a narrator, but what I tell is true, not fiction. --Barbara W. Tuchman

When people who crave meaning suddenly face a meaningless world, they first show two mentalities. Resigned to meaninglessness: decadence. Impassioned resistance to futility: tragic. There is also a third state of mind: boredom. In the 19th century, the Russian aristocratic elite intellectuals had manors and serfs at home. They lived a comfortable life and were well educated. Under the high-pressure rule, social consciousness was first enlightened. They were full of enthusiasm, dissatisfied with reality, and eager to make a difference. However, they repeatedly encountered obstacles and were unable to change the class status quo, and became painful, depressed, cynical, and contemptuous of all moral norms in life. This boredom of unwillingness to accept and resist is reflected in Russian literature, which is the emergence of a series of "superfluous people" images. Always looking for meaning, but never getting it. They are not heinous and evil people, they are even honest and upright people. Any efforts you make will bring harm to others. In the end, his soul was gradually corroded by this unfathomable loss, and he became even more zombie-like. But this mentality of hating life and admiring death seems to be very close to the current "little mourning". There are such "superfluous people" in every era. Because they can't find the meaning of life, they feel that they are excluded by the era and are a dispensable person. Following Pushkin's Onegin and Lermontov's Pycholin, they are an unavoidable image of a "superfluous man" that condenses the spirit of an entire era in Russia. Lermontov's "The Superfluous Man" is the beginning of Russian social psychological novels. It is a travelogue, a diary, a love adventure and a confession.
