Hardback. Zustand: Good. In nearly three thousand BBC broadcasts over fifty-eight years, Alistair Cooke reported on America, illuminating our country for a global audience. He was one of the most widely read and widely heard chroniclers of America--the Twentieth Century's de Tocqueville. Cooke died in 2004, but shortly before he passed away a long-forgotten manuscript resurfaced in a closet in his New York apartment. It was a travelogue of America during the early days of World War II that had sat there for sixty years. Published to stellar reviews in 2006, though somewhat past deadline, Cooke's The American Home Front is a valentine to his adopted country by someone who loved it as well as anyone and knew it better than most (The Plain Dealer Cleveland]). It is a unique artifact and a historical gem, an unexpected and welcome discover in a time capsule. (Washington Post) A portrait frozen in time, the book offers a charming look at the war through small towns, big cities, and the American landscape as they once were. The American Home Front is also a brilliant piece of reportage, a historical gem that affirms Cooke's enduring place as a great twentieth-century reporter (American Heritage).…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Classics stand the test of time, and Alistair Cooke's history of America is a classic. Nearly three decades have passed since the original edition of Americabased on journalist-historian Cooke's extraordinarily popular thirteen-part television seriessold more than a million copies. Yet Cooke's view of America's dynamic past and its impact upon the always-changing present continues to provide striking insights into the singular character of a nation. Those thirty years since award-winning America first rose to the top of best-seller lists have themselves wrought further dramatic changes. Presidents have been impeached, economies have toppled, empires have collapsed, and towers have fallen. In light of such events, Cooke has written for this new edition a compelling introduction and final chapter that bring his story of America up to date with the wisdom of the inimitably grand old man of correspondents. And what a story this book tells. From the discovery of America by European explorers to modern times; from the fighters for independence to the pioneers who tamed the West; from the slaves who fled to freedom to the huddled masses that sought a new life in the New World. And through it all, Cooke describes the essential forces that make America work so vitally. Updated in light of the September 11th tragedy, this new edition is complimented with full-color illustrations throughout. "The first and maybe the finest, tribute to the nation. "Newsweek "A panoramic book, traveling fast and high, and the view it gives of our land and its people is exhilarating. "Atlantic Monthly.…
