The Penguin History of the United States of America is a non-fiction book about the history of the United States written by Hugh Brogan and published by Penguin Books. It was originally titled The Longman History of the United States of America, published by the Longman company from 1985 through 1999. Longman and Penguin are both part of Pearson PLC. The book starts in the pre-Columbian era and, in the first edition, ends in the mid 1970s. The second edition, or "new edition", added a chapter covering through to the end of the 1980s. The book introduces a wide range of dynamic figures and events in American history from the beginning of the British colony to the Reagan era. The history of America's fragile beginning and growth from becoming a global powerhouse is excellently synthesized with various latest research materials.The book is hugely useful because it describes this history not only from the American point of view but also from the British point of view, therefore, it is able to investigate both perspectives. |
