The American Soul
by Jacob Needleman
In a series of concise portraits of America's founders, the author of Money and the Meaning of Life examines how the spiritual beliefs and vision of Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and others shaped American history and culture and assesses the influence of the spiritual traditions of African slaves, Native Americans, and early mystical communities on early America.
Trail of Hope
by Slaughter
The western migration of more than 500,000 people is one of America's legendary stories. From 1806, when Lewis and Clark "opened" the West, until the 1869 joining of the railroads, these pioneers set out on trails leading to various points westward. Forsaking all they knew -- sometimes leaving behind friends and family -- the emigrants moved toward the unknown with hope for a new start and a better life. Within this general migration is the story of some seventy thousand Mormon pioneers who traveled on foot, in wagon trains, and, during a four-year experiment, in handcart companies to their Zion in the Great Basin of the West -- Salt Lake City. Beginning with their expulsion from Nauvoo, Illinois, in 1846 and for the succeeding twenty-two years, the migration of the Mormon pioneers was a curious saga in the settlement of the American West. Mostly poor, they came from the eastern United States, Canada, England, the European continent, and South Africa. They traveled on ships, canal boats, trains, and riverboats and then came on foot in wagon trains and handcart companies. An 1849 observer in Florence, Nebraska, described a Mormon wagon train in this way: "They began to bend their way westward over the boundless plains that lie between us and the Valley of the Great Salt Lake. Slowly and majestically they moved along, displaying a column of upwards of three hundred wagons, cattle, sheep, hogs, horses, mules, chickens, turkeys, geese, doves, goats, and...lots of men, women and children. In this company was...the farmer, the merchant, the doctor, the minister, and almost every thing necessary for a settlement in a new country".
Vietnam and the Transformation of American Life
by Robert Buzzanco
This concise and lively introduction presents a history, of the role America played in the Vietnam War and how the consequences of the war changed American culture and society. Vietnam occurred simultaneously with the civil rights movement, women's liberation and youth culture movements. Award-winning author Robert Buzzanco examines how the war helped transform society -- sometimes radically -- at a period when America was most vulnerable. The book is divided into 2 sections. The first outlines the emergence of Ho Chi Minh and the Vietnamese nationalist movement and explains why the United States intervened. It discusses the repeated escalations of the war in the Johnson and Nixon years and the lack of lasting success, and finally, the causes and consequences of American defeat. The second section examines the major political and social movements of the 1960s: liberalism, civil rights, and youth culture It studies the mass student mobilization against the war, which changed the nature of American political and social life, giving rise to other movements in turn. African-Americans, women, Latinos, and Native Americans intensified their own efforts to secure equal rights in American society. Vietnam and the Transformation of American life offers new insight into this divisive volatile, and crucial era in American history and its lasting impact on American politics and society.
