This is one of the most interesting books I’ve ever read. It’s about America’s story from its discovery and founding to recent history. Overall, Wildred McClay provides a broad overview of significant events, people, and ideas, aiming to show what made America a land of hope.

Events include the unsettlement of Europe, the Revolutionary War, Westward expansion, the Civil War, industrialization and modernization, the World Wars, and more.

Leaders include Christopher Columbus, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., and many more.

If you want a complete and fascinating explanation of who and what made America the greatest country on earth, this book is for you.
