A boxed gift edition of the best single-volume history of the United
States. With its engaging narrative style and its richness of
anecdote and detail, this complete history of our country--including
over 300 illustrations and 100 maps--continues to delight readers.
From presidencies and battles to the culture of everyday life, this
is a compelling history of the American experience, animated by human
characters, informed by analysis and social texture, and guided by
the unfolding of events. It is a story in the best sense, the story
of the land and the people, from the pre-Columbian experience of the
Native Americans through the trials and tragedies of colonization,
revolution, and civil war, to the modern era of world wars and global
economies, up through the Clinton administration. This book is a
must-read--and a marvelous gift--for all lovers of history.
