Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Nothing short of a masterpiece.” —NPR Books A New York Times Bestseller and a Washington Post Notable Book of the Year In the most ambitious one-volume American history in decades, award-winning historian Jill Lepore offers a magisterial account of the origins and rise of a divided nation. Widely hailed for its “sweeping, sobering account of the American past” (New York Times Book Review), Jill Lepore’s one-volume history of America places truth itself—a devotion to facts, proof, and evidence—at the center of the nation’s history. The American experiment rests on three ideas—“these truths,” Jefferson called them—political equality, natural rights, and the sovereignty of the people. But has the nation, and democracy itself, delivered on that promise? These Truths tells this uniquely American story, beginning in 1492, asking whether the course of events over more than five centuries has proven the nation’s truths, or belied them. To answer that question, Lepore wrestles with the state of American politics, the legacy of slavery, the persistence of inequality, and the nature of technological change. “A nation born in contradiction… will fight, forever, over the meaning of its history,” Lepore writes, but engaging in that struggle by studying the past is part of the work of citizenship. With These Truths, Lepore has produced a book that will shape our view of American history for decades to come.

This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Old World an European Background to the Story of Our Country All of Old-World history is the New Worlds heritage; no historian dare assert in regard to the most remote and seemingly insignificant occurrence of ancient record that it had no influence upon the course of later human events. But there are certain events connected with earlier human progress that have had a direct and easily traceable influence upon our New-World destinies; a knowledge of these is essential to a full understanding and enjoyment of the story of our country. A committee of eight eminent teachers reporting upon the study of American history in our schools, has declared that too much emphasis is placed upon the Atlantic Ocean as a barrier between the history of the New World and that of the Old. This book is written to meet that criticism. It is not a condensed general history. It is, in reality, the story of our country carried beyond and behind that wall habitually erected by earlier school historians upon the borders of the Atlantic.

This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eastern, or Old World, Embracing Ancient and Modern History, Vol. 1 The attempt has been made, in the following work, to furnish, within limits accessible to the general reader, a succinct and connected historical account of such nations as have played the most important, conspicuous, or interesting parts in the progress of the World. To most minds, undoubtedly, the chief charm of such an account consists in the frequency of personal details; and though the plan of this book necessarily precludes the narration of many extraneous events, the more momentous passages of history are displayed as fully as possible, and scenes characteristic of the age, or of any celebrated personage, arc related with as much minuteness as may consist with the limits of the work. Much attention has been paid to the frequency and accuracy of dales, so indispensable to a clear and connected view of the history of nations, especially in their mutual relations; and the arrangement of the several articles has been made, as far as might be, with an especial view to the .general connection and progress of mankind. Repetition, as far as possible, has been avoided, and where, as it frequently occurs, the history of one nation is for a long period involved in that of another, the events common to both are detailed but once, though with the proper reference. The beauty of the typography, and of other matters which constitute the mechanical perfection of a book, will, it is believed, require no especial notice or eulogium; and the number, selection, and excellence of the engravings, (mostly designed and executed by the first artists of the country,) are probably unequalled by those of any volume of a similar character ever published in America.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heritage From the Old World In the, treatment of causes leading up to great historical events emphasis has been placed upon the growth of sentiment as the motive agent behind the development of such events. Scenes and situations are pictured as results of such sentiment and not merely as detached episodes. History is life as it is lived. I t is dynamic. Historic events have depended upon prevailing ideas. The text has tried to catch and transmit the spirit of those ideas. Even if there followed no immediate event, the event was, as we may say, assembling itself. History has both form and content. The content or idea finally shapes itself in form or event. In every instance where it is possible past historic movements have been linked with the present, showing either contrast or similarity, but above all showing how the influence of such movements has reached and enriched our own times.
