Synopsis
American history is replete with great and dramatic events, and in recent years a generation of great writers have brought these events to life. They have shared these stories with the viewers of the groundbreaking C-SPAN program, Booknotes , and here the best have been collected for readers to savor. Renowned writers and historians examine more than eighty unforgettable moments in American history, moments both celebrated and uncelebrated, from the Boston Tea Party to the Watergate break-in, from slavery to affirmative action, from Gettysburg to Iwo Jima. Included are Annette Gordon-Reed on the different ages' reactions to the Jefferson-Hemings controversy, James M. McPherson on the rush to enlist to fight in the Civil War, Witold Rybczynski on the building of Central Park, Gina Kolata on the worldwide influenza epidemic of 1918, Nicholas Lemann on the "great migration" of Southern blacks to Northern cities, Tom Brokaw on the World War II generation, Norman Podhoretz on the rise of neoconservatism, Leonard Garment on Watergate, Richard Holbrooke on the signing of the Dayton Peace Accords, and much more. For Booknotes 's famously devoted fans--and for anyone interested in American history--this is a wonderfully engaging compendium of information, opinion, and fascinating new perspectives.

- u***n (36)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseIt was shipped on time and almost immediately. Very well packaged and exactly as it was described. She did a very good job at communicating me when a potential snag almost happened and even offered me a refund if things didn’t go well. Very good seller with valuable items. I will most likely buy from her again.
- r***b (62)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem arrived in great condition and is brand new still in shrink wrap. The packaging was really good- it was in a padded envelope with extra bubble wrap around it. It looks like it just came right off the store shelf. The price was very fair as were the shipping costs. I am very happy with the transaction and would definitely purchase from this seller in the future.
