American Republics by Alan Taylor
From a Pulitzer Prizewinning historian, the powerful story of a precarious United States as it expands across a contested continent.
"Taylor’s special contribution in “American Republics” is his capacity for panning out to capture major historical trends… he shows his skill in producing an expansive overview that synthesizes discoveries by historians, including himself… Whether as a gloss of received historical wisdom or as an overview whose originality lies in its comprehensiveness, “American Republics” succeeds admirably" -- David S. Reynolds - The New York Times Book Review
"[Alan Taylor's] book is written in clear, readable prose designed for readers with little or no prior knowledge of the period, and the work has touches of wokeness, which helps to fit it nicely into this extraordinary moment in our history." -- Gordon S. Wood - The Wall Street Journal
"... masterful new volume..." -- M. J. Andersen - The Boston Globe
