Includes Dedication; Contributors; A Note from Robert A. Wilson; A Note from Don Carty; Preface; Bibliography; Photo Credits; Acknowledgments; and Index. Profusely illustrated with color photographs, black-and-white photographs, drawings, etc. The rear lower left corner cover has a 4 inch crease. (see photographs). Highlights from American Greats (from the rear outer cover): "It remains what it was, the greatest of bridges, the Brooklyn Bridge, made in America, its appeal defying time, a symbol now no less than ever of brave work nobly done." - David McCullough on the Brooklyn Bridge. "There is only one Chez Panisse. In this age of multiple restaurants it has no clones in London, Las Vegas, or Tokyo. Because Alice Waters has more than money on her mind." - Ruth Reichl on Chez Panisse. "Duke Ellington liked to claim he won his job at the Cotton Club, in December 1927, because he showed up three hours late for the audition, as did the owner, who heard only Ellington and non of his rivals." - Gary Giddins on the Duke Ellington Orchestra. "They [the editors] had uncanny ears for a false note; they sometimes surprised you by accepting a daring or experimental piece; they manifested a cloistered virtue, in a fallen, hustling world, that made appearing anywhere else feel like a dangerous trespass." - John Updike on The New Yorker. "Our original goal was simple, and only in retrospect, revolutionary: to use television to help children learn. We knew young children watched a great deal of television in the years before they went to school. We also knew they liked cartoons, game shows, and situation comedies; that they responded to slapstick humor, music with a beat, and above all - sadly - fast-paced, oft-repeated commercials." - Joan Ganz Cooney on Sesame Street. "So here I was, my anxiety over the flight spilling all over Danny DeVito, my fears at the time very real. Danny responded, 'Look there's no way you're going to crash because I am the LUCKIEST MAN ALIVE, and since I need you to do this work with me when you come back, there is no way you don't make it back.' 'Great,' I said. 'I can just picture it; the plane is on fire and as we crash I'm screaming, "Ha, ha Danny. Your luck has run out.' " - James L. Brooks on television situation comedy. "What made the Wright brothers' successful early experiments so remarkable is that neither had any academic education in physics. They were entirely self-taught. The difference between them and other small town entrepreneurs was they had a genius for learning, and for identifying new problems to solve." - John Keegan on the Wright Brothers. "West Point has always seemed to me to be unusually close to Main Street in Middle America; it is a place without glitz, which without consciously trying, reflects both the norm, the center, and the diversity of America. Again and again it turns out good people of significant personal modesty and a powerful sense of obligation." - David Halberstam on West Point.…

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. A vivid and comprehensive journey through the turbulent history of the American West, from the arrival of the first Europeans well into the twentieth century. This "Illustrated History" by Geoffrey C. Ward, presented as a companion to the acclaimed Ken Burns documentary series, draws upon hundreds of letters, diaries, memoirs, and journals, alongside the latest scholarship. The book chronicles the arrival of wave after wave of newcomers - explorers, soldiers, Indian warriors, settlers, railroad builders, and showmen - each investing the harsh but majestic western landscape with their own myths, desires, and dreams. The cast is as rich and diverse as the western landscape itself, featuring figures like Coronado, Custer, Jesse James, Chief Joseph, Brigham Young, and Buffalo Bill, alongside scores of lesser-known but equally compelling westerners: a Chinese ditch-digger, a wealthy Mexican landowner, a forty-niner from Chile, a British-born Texas cowboy, a missionary woman who loathed the West, and a Wellesley graduate who loved it despite its hardships. "The West" explores the tensions between whites and native peoples, encompasses the Hispanic experience from conquistadors to the transformation of Los Angeles, delves into the lives of Chinese immigrants who sought "Gold Mountain," and details the ordeals of freed slaves homesteading on the Great Plains. Featuring insightful essays by distinguished historians and writers including Dayton Duncan, John Mack Faragher, David G. Gutierrez, Julie Roy Jeffrey, Patricia Nelson Limerick, N. Scott Momaday, T. H. Watkins, and Richard White. Hardcover in Very Good condition.…
