America, The Last Best Hope From the Age of Discovery to a World of War 1492-1914

The big set pieces and the big themes of politics and war reclaim the place they used to enjoy in old narrative histories...Bennett ably evokes the mood and atmosphere of crises....He never misses the chance to tell a good anecdote, and he has an eye for the strange, the gruesome, and the surprising."Bennett, William J. is the author of 'America, The Last Best Hope From the Age of Discovery to a World of War 1492-1914', published 2006 under ISBN 9781595550552 and ISBN 1595550550.
