Alistair Cooke's America traces the history of America from the eve of discovery by European explorers to modern times: the young nation fighting for independence and forging its identity; the indomitable spirit of those who set out to tame the West; the fate of slaves and their masters; the 'huddled masses' who came seeking a new life. For this new edition (it is now thirty years since first publication) Alistair Cooke has written an extensive 'Note to the Reader', compiled with the inimitable wisdom that has engaged his audiences and readers for over half a century.
