One of our great historians has now given us yet another great work. . . . [It] may be brief, but it is wise, eloquent and authoritative. Readers in search of a sprightly tour of the nation’s lives and times need look no farther than Remini’s latest achievement.Robert Dallek
A masterful recounting of the Amercian experience from the discovery of the New World to the present. . . . It is a perfect history for our times.
