Publisher's Summary:
With imagination, thematic breadth, and his trademark wit, Fernandez-Armesto covers a range of cultural, political, and social subjects, taking us from the dawn of human migration to North America, to the colonial and independence periods, and to the "American century" and beyond. Fernandez-Armesto does nothing less than revise the conventional wisdom about cross-cultural exchange, conflict, and interaction, making and supporting some brilliantly provocative conclusions about the Americas' past and where we are headed.
Critic Reviews:
"Dazzling....An elegant tale." (Publishers Weekly)
"Fernandez-Armesto can personalize broad historical trends without sinking into triviality....History written at its best." (Booklist)
