Sobre este artículo
Bancroft Prize–winning historian Reynolds (Walt Whitman's America) offers a fine addition to the literature on pre–Civil War American history in this account of the years 1815–1848.
Waking Giant is a brilliant, definitive history of America's vibrant and tumultuous rise during the Jacksonian era from David S. Reynolds, the Bancroft Prize-winning author of Walt Whitman's America. Casting fresh light on Andrew Jackson, who redefined the presidency, along with John Quincy Adams and James K. Polk, who expanded the nation's territory and strengthened its position internationally, Reynolds captures the turbulence of a democracy caught in the throes of the controversy over slavery, the rise of capitalism, and the birth of urbanization.

Sobre Deb's Book Paradise
We hand-select our slightly used often new condition and one-of-a-kind book selections. We treat them with the dignity they deserve. We also publish titles that you can buy through us. These purchases help support sustainable indie publishing. We may be a little guy but our books are HUGE. Deb is not only a lifelong book collector (hoarder) she is the author of 13 traditionally published books. Her most recent is a bestselling memoir written with the youngest member of the Manson Family Cult. Deb's entire adult life has been spent selecting books for her husband's literary agency, writing books, publishing books and now selling them to you. By the way, Deb's first job aside from getting fired from a fast-food restaurant, was at B. Dalton's Booksellers. Doesn't that bring you back?
