The Penguin History of the USA: New Edition

Beschreibung

From early British colonisation to the Reagan years, this title captures an array of dynamic personalities and events. In a broad sweep of America's triumphant progress, it explores the period leading to Independence from the American and the British points of view, touching on permanent features of 'the American character' - the good and the bad.
