[James Munves] has the gift of finding the particular detail that illuminates the whole. . . . The narrative comes out to be more than the sum of its parts. --Emily Maxwell, The New Yorker "The struggle for independence, the creation of a new government, westward expansion, regional differences, Civil War, social and economic change, Depression and world wars--all described and related the one to another in a smooth and knowledgeable narrative." --Nash K. Burger, The New York Times "The best short history that I have ever read." --Thurman Arnold "A model volume of its kind . . . Deserves wide acceptance." --Allan Nevins
