Shelby Foote, who cut such a courtly figure in Ken Burns's PBSseries The Civil War , is an uncommonly graceful writer aswell, and this careful study of the 1863 Gettysburg campaignassumes the contours of a classical tragedy. Foote positionsreaders on the field of battle itself, among swirling smoke andclattering grapeshot, and invites us to feel for ourselves itshellishness: "men on both sides were hollering as they milled aboutand fired, some cursing, others praying ... not a commingling ofshouts and yells but rather like a vast mournful roar." Foote'sfine book is history as literature, and a welcome addition to anyCivil War buff's library.

1491 (SECOND EDITION(ISBN=9781400032051)
In this groundbreaking work of science, history, andarchaeology, Charles C. Mann radically alters our understanding ofthe Americas before the arrival of Columbus in 1492.Contrary towhat so many Americans learn in school, the pre-Columbian Indianswere not sparsely settled in a pristine wilderness; rather, therewere huge numbers of Indians who actively molded and influenced theland around them. From the astonishing Aztec capital ofTenochtitlán, which had running water, immaculately clean streets,and was larger than any contemporary European city, to the Mexicancorn that was so carefully created in a specialized breedingprocess that it has been called man’s first feat of geneticengineering, Indians were not living lightly on the land but werelandscaping and manipulating their world in ways that we are onlynow beginning to understand. Challenging and surprising, this atransformative new look at a rich and fascinating world we onlythought we knew.

“Definitive. . . . Green’s dramatic narrative tells a powerfulstory about injustice, passion, prejudice and fanaticism.” — TheChicago Tribune “Though a number of prominent historians havewritten about the Haymarket Affair, no one has told the story morethoroughly, incisively and elegantly than Green. . . . He hasreconstructed both the context and the events of the Haymarkettragedy with the fine hand of a novelist. The book is rich in plotdevelopment and thick characterization, and its interpretations anddrama leave the reader both informed and drained.”— The San DiegoUnion-Tribune “Absorbing. . . .Green . . .brings this tale tovivid life [and] does a wonderful job of delineating the crosscurrents of labor, capital, politics, and terrorism. . .fascinating and deeply American.”— The Boston Globe “It tellsthe tale with extraordinary grace.
