A nation forged by crisis : a new American history / Jay Sexton. by Sexton, Jay, 1978- author. New York, NY : Basic Books, 2018. Subjects United States -- Historiography. ISBN:  9781541617230 : 1541617231 Description:  vii, 246 pages ; 25 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "In A Nation Forged by Crisis, historian Jay Sexton contends that our national narrative is not one of halting yet inevitable progress, but of repeated disruptions brought about by shifts in the international system. Sexton shows that the American Revolution was a consequence of the increasing integration of the British and American economies; that a necessary precondition for the Civil War was the absence, for the first time in decades, of foreign threats; and that we cannot understand the New Deal without examining the role of European immigrants and their offspring in transforming the Democratic Party. A necessary corrective to conventional narratives of American history, A Nation Forged by Crisis argues that we can only prepare for our unpredictable future by first acknowledging the contingencies of our collective past"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973 Se Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Sexton Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Se Checked In Add Copy to MyList
