| 內容簡介: |
In America Reborn, journalist and historian Martin Walker
來源:香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk defines twentieth-century America through the portraits of
twenty-six American individuals whose accomplishments, innovations
and ideals propelled the United States to a position of global
dominance.
Here are the thoughts and beliefs of politicians and performers,
thinkers and doers, capitalists and revolutionaries, immigrants and
the native born. From Teddy Roosevelt''s imperial ambitions to Bill
Clinton''s global vision; Emma Goldman’s radical ideals to William
F. Buckley''s profound conservatism; Albert Einstein''s elegant
theories to Katharine Hepburn''s elegant delivery-the biographical
essays that make up this narrative show us the variety of American
archetypes and offer a vision of how strong individualism has
always been the bedrock of helped make up the American
character.
