The History of the USA Year by Year

Explore how the pillars of the rule of law--from the courts of ancient Athens to the Constitution of the United States--were builtIn The Just and the Good, William Magnuson takes readers on a sweeping tour of the history of the law in Western civilization. He explains how foundational institutions like courts, codes, and constitutions magically transform the worlds they govern. And he argues that if we want to understand the foundations of freedom, justice, and democracy, we need to begin by looking at the history of the law.In each chapter, Magnuson explores how the pillars of the rule of law were built. How did the courts of ancient Athens create the world's first democracy? Why did the barons of medieval England insist that King John sign the Magna Carta? What was so revolutionary about the American Constitution? And why did it take so long to abolish slavery? Magnuson shows that the answers to these questions are not always as simple as they seem. Good laws require ingenuity, problem-solving, and compromise.A landmark work, The Just and the Good teaches us where our ideas of justice came from and why they are worth saving.

The Shortest History Series

When Britain's thirteen American colonies declared their independence on July 4, 1776, the United States of America was born. It became a profoundly powerful nation that, for much of its history, has been the crucible of invention and creativity, a refuge for millions, and a beacon of hope, freedom, and multiculturalism. But from the start, it was hardly united. In this insightful, evenhanded account, Don Watson highlights the key figures who fought for the country's inalienable rights and embodied its indomitable spirit-in politics and at home, on the frontiers and in its cities, in books and music and on screens. And he traces how the central conflicts of the United States-those over freedom, race, enterprise, religion, and violence-evolve through its history. As we witness a country at war with itself in the 1860s, leading the free world less than a hundred years later, and beset by wild division and turmoil in the twenty-first century, we see that this singular nation has never ceased changing-and that the American experiment continues to unfold. The Shortest History books deliver thousands of years of history in one riveting, fast-paced read.

From Revolutionary Roots to Global Superpower - The Remarkable Rise of the World's Oldest Democracy

The Shortest History of the United States

The story of a disillusioned generation that set out to reclaim its dignity and take on corporate America. In recent years, young college grads have faced an alarming reality: crushing debt, unemployment, and jobs below their qualifications. They are frustrated that the time and money they invested in a degree have failed to bring about the opportunities they were promised. The anger of this college-educated working class began to boil over during the Covid pandemic, when workers at companies like Apple and Starbucks shocked corporate America by voting to unionize. Not long after, the veteran New York Times reporter Noam Scheiber met Chaya Barrett, an astute college grad and eight-year Apple employee who had stepped up and helped organize her coworkers at an Apple store near Baltimore. While following Barrett and her cohort as their seemingly spontaneous rebellions spread far and wide-from college-educated workers at Apple stores and Starbucks cafés, through video-game studios, and even to Hollywood writers' rooms-Scheiber realized he was witnessing something deep and lasting. Mutiny is the revelatory account of a generation made confident by their historic educational achievements, only to become disillusioned when their degrees yielded far less than they were taught to expect. With striking empathy, Scheiber paints a vivid portrait of this new working class while telling the dramatic story of its revolt against the status quo. He describes how recent developments like the proliferation of artificial intelligence and the war in Gaza have further fueled its discontent, and he explains why the college-educated working class will continue to demand change in the workplace, in cities like New York, and in national politics for years to come.

A GLOBE AND MAIL BESTSELLER A jarring portrait of a deeply unequal Canada and how a wealth tax could rein in the destructive power wielded by today's billionaires. As the ultra-wealthy siphon off an ever-larger share of the world's wealth, they now dominate us to a degree unimaginable even a decade ago. With their voracious consumption, unbridled resource exploitation, and relentless obstruction of climate action, they are rapidly undermining democracy and destroying the very viability of the earth for human life. Their staggering power and hoarding of wealth have prompted a number of G20 nations to consider imposing a wealth tax, aimed exclusively at the super-rich. In Canada, such a tax would apply only to those with wealth above $25 million. Yet it could collect $40 billion a year -- funding public programs that could immensely improve the lives of millions of Canadians while clipping the wings of the super-rich. Billionaires would threaten to depart. But as they left the country that had nourished them and enabled them to grow so wildly rich, they'd face a hefty "exit tax" on the way out. Yes, change is possible.

** THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ** All We Say is the story of the United States through fifteen speeches - some iconic, others long forgotten, all pivotal - from its founding to the intense divisions of our times, from one of President Obama's former speechwriters. 'A learned and excellently sane book' - Sam Leith, Daily Telegraph (5 Stars) 'Wonderful - fascinating, thought-provoking and full of insights. Essential reading' - Justin Web For 250 years, America has debated what it means to be American. The question shaped the compromises in the Constitution and the arguments they've had ever since, spawning abolitionism, secession and civil war; populism, mass migration and global leadership; movements for reform and the backlashes to them. Through riveting accounts of the people, movements and moments that produced these speeches, Rhodes traces the history of America's battle over identity. The result is a singular and revealing portrait of the United States: a nation divided between two stories - one of inheritance, power, and exclusion, the other of equality, striving, and belonging. Drawing on a decade writing for Barack Obama, Rhodes also reveals how words can redirect a nation, what makes a speech enduring, and why oratory is a unique form of persuasion in a democracy. These speeches remind us that history is a living argument. At a time when American identity - and truth - is contested, All We Say offers a fresh and powerful look at who America really is, and who it could still become. 'Ben Rhodes reminds us what American greatness actually sounds like, and what it means' - Ayad Akhtar
