Alistair Cooke - Alistair Cooke's America.

Omschrijving

Alistair Cooke - Alistair Cooke's America. British Broadcasting Corporation (B.B.C.), London, first published 1973, ISBN 0563121823, 400pp incl. index, hardcover with dust jacket, very slight shelf wear to edge of D/J, good.

In this greatly expanded version of his acclaimed BBC television series, Alistair Cooke takes the story of the USA from before its discovery by Columbus to the present day. His portraits of the men who left their mark on the country - the politicians, the bankers and tycoons, the generals, the sodbusters, and the immigrants - are masterly. He writes about the land and the people with the dispassionate but affectionate perceptiveness that listeners to his Letter from America broadcasts have become addicted to. It is a book to be read for itself; it presupposes no knowledge of the American background, but anyone who reads it will have laid the f oundations of an unders tanding of the currents that have affected the course of American history. The book is lavishly illustrated in colour and black and white, with paintings, photographs and drawings which supplement the story.
