The American Future: A History

Viking Canada, 3972. Hardcover. Like New. Hardcover with dust jacket, Like New (Near Fine), clean, tight, unmarked, Dust Jacket Like New (Near Fine) Remainder mark,() Acclaimed historian and award-winning author Simon Schama offers an essential historical perspective on the crucial 2008 presidential election and its importance for reclaiming America's original ideal. It's not business as usual. Cultural hostilities more irreconcilable than any since the Civil War have divided America in two. In November 2008, the American people elected a new president, feeling more anxious about the future of the nation than at any time since Watergate. Our omnipotent military, the cornucopia of material comforts available, the security of our borders, and the global economy can no longer be taken for granted. In The American Future, historian Simon Schama takes a long look at the multiple crises besetting the United States and asks how these problems look in the mirror of time. In four crucial debates—on wars, religion, race and immigr ID: mon0000064304 .

The American Future. A History.

London England, The Bodley Head, 2008. First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 9781847920003 Hardback Hardback. First Edition. Price clipped to D/J. With the election in November 2008 of a new president, the United States has embarked on an intense slef-examination about the trajctory of its history; how it came to find itself in multiple crises and how an America that began as 'the last, best hope of earth' came to be so suspected and vilified around much of the world. This book, written by an author who has spent half his life there, takes the long view of how the United States has come to this anguished moment of truth about its own identity as a nation and its place in the world. It discusses the most compelling issues facing Americans now - and traces the deep history of the present crisis. Cumulatively the chapters build into a history of American exceptionalism - the 'American difference' that means so much to its people but which has let it into calamities as well as triumohs. One of those differences historically has been the capacity to renew and rebuild the nation at times when it seemed overwhelmed bu disaster. 1932 and 1976 were such moments; 2008 is another, when the fate of America, and by extension the world, is hanging in the balance. This book argues that if you want to know what is truly at stake, you need to absorb these stories and understand the history - for understanding is the condition of hope. Illustrated. 392 pp.
