A Brief History of the United States offers a sweeping yet accessible journey through the defining moments, movements, and people that shaped a nation. From the early days of Indigenous civilizations and European colonization, to the birth of the republic and the fiery crucible of the Civil War, this book captures the evolution of the United States as it strove to balance liberty with conflict, and unity with division. It explores how a bold experiment in democracy emerged on the global stage and was continually tested by challenges both internal and external.
