Description

Railroad tycoons are roaring across the country. New cities are springing up, and a new and different American West comes into being: a land of farmers, ranchers, miners, and city dwellers.

Immigration is changing the mix of Americans; mostly the newcomers work hard and achieve. Some rare individuals make their mark: P.T.Barnum entertains. Rascally Boss Tweed steals from his constituents. Thomas Edison lights the world. Carry Nation wields a hatchet in her battle against alcoholism.
And Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois have different ideas on how the newly freed African Americans should behave.

A History of US is a 10-volume, award-winning series about the birth and development of the United States as related by master storyteller Joy Hakim.
