America's First Civil War

Eventually, there might be an entire popular history of America available through an H.W. Brands box set. The University of Texas professor has tackled antebellum politics, Westward expansion, Texas, the California Gold Rush, the Gilded Age, the murder of Jim Fisk, the 1890s, American finance, entrepreneurial capitalism, the Cold War, the Truman-MacArthur confrontation, and post-war America, in addition to biographies of Benjamin Franklin, Aaron Burr, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, and John Brown, Ulysses S. Grant, Woodrow Wilson, both Roosevelts, and Ronald Reagan. Now comes the Revolution.
