Description

"Many aspects of American history (as well as the history of other nations) tempt us to adopt a critical and moralistic stance. The gap between historical reality and the rhetoric of chauvinists, politicians, and super-patriots invites irony at their expense, even their ridicule. However, such a stance entails other types of distortions. The aim of this book is to present history in a critical but balanced and as non-ideological manner as possible, and above all, to let the reader judge as they see fit."

    Excellent book for an introduction to American history.
    Our knowledge of American history is relatively unknown, but the existence of such books helps us discover it.
    If you want to learn how the nation/state of the USA was born and how they were led to the Civil War, as well as how they ended up becoming a superpower, this is the book you should read.
    The narrative reaches up until the beginning of Barack Obama's presidency.
