A Nation Rising Tapa blanda - 2011
de Kenneth C. Davis
Following his "New York Times" bestseller "America's Hidden History," Davis explores the gritty years of 1800 to 1850, a period that ranks among the most tumultuous in this nation's short life.
Descripción de contraportada
In the dramatic period from 1800 through 1850, the United States went from a tiny newborn nation on the Atlantic seaboard to a near-empire that spanned the continent. But America's path to nationhood was vastly more complex than the tidily packaged national myth of a destiny made manifest by visionary political leaders and fearless pioneers. In A Nation Rising, bestselling author Kenneth C. Davis offers fascinating, intertwining stories about historical episodes whose great issues--ambition, power, territorial expansion, slavery, intolerance, civil rights, freedom of the press--reverberate to this day, including:
- Aaron Burr's 1807 trial, culminating in one of our nation's first media circuses
- The 1813 Indian uprising and ensuing massacre, exposing the powerful conflicts at the heart of America's expansion
- The mutiny aboard the slave ship Creole, illustrating how the institution of slavery both destroyed lives and warped our nation's founding
- The bloody "Bible Riots" in Philadelphia, erupting in an early episode of deadly anti-immigrant sentiment
Eye-opening history and riveting storytelling, A Nation Rising is a powerful reminder of the ways in which our past continues to shape our present.
