Synopsis
A concise, readable map of how America came to be.
This book traces the events that led to the revolt of the Thirteen Colonies and the development of the United States, from the age of exploration to the framing of a new nation.
This edition frames a broad story with clear, accessible language. It emphasizes the ideas, debates, and turning points that shaped early America, and it explains how Britain and America came to share a common history and a hopeful future. The narrative rests on well-known milestones and the people who helped build the nation, presenting a guided overview rather than a detailed chronicle.
- Explains the rise of exploration that opened the Americas, from Behaim and Toscanelli to Columbus.
- Delves into the creation of the Constitution, the balance of powers, and the key compromises around representation and slavery.
- Outlines major dates and events, showing how independence and state relations formed the new republic.
- Connects ideas about rights, government, and the role of leaders to the making of America.
Ideal for readers curious about the roots of the United States and how Britain and America came to understand each other.
