Paperback. Zustand: Good. The incredible story of Benjamin Franklin's parting gift to the working-class people of Boston and Philadelphia--a deathbed wager that captures the Founder's American Dream and his lessons for our current, conflicted age. Benjamin Franklin was not a gambling man. But at the end of his illustrious life, the Founder allowed himself a final wager on the survival of the United States: a gift of two thousand pounds to Boston and Philadelphia, to be lent out to tradesmen over the next two centuries to jump-start their careers. Each loan would be repaid with interest over ten years. If all went according to Franklin's inventive scheme, the accrued final payout in 1991 would be a windfall.  In Benjamin Franklin's Last Bet, Michael Meyer traces the evolution of these twin funds as they age alongside America itself, bankrolling woodworkers and silversmiths, trade schools and space races. Over time, Franklin's wager was misused, neglected, and contested--but never wholly extinguished. With charm and inquisitive flair, Meyer shows how Franklin's stake in the "leather-apron" class remains in play to this day, and offers an inspiring blueprint for prosperity in our modern era of growing wealth disparity and social divisions. Meyer's fascinating account of this two-hundred-year wager reveals: A Founding Father's Vision: How Franklin's deathbed bet on the "leather-apron" class was designed to strengthen the American Dream for centuries to come. Deeply Researched American History: The incredible two-hundred-year story of the twin funds in Boston and Philadelphia, from their inception to their surprising survival in 1991. Economic History in Action: An engrossing look at how the funds were misused, neglected, and contested, yet ultimately survived to pay out a windfall. Lessons on Wealth Disparity: A blueprint for modern prosperity, drawing sharp parallels between the Gilded Age, the Founding Era, and our own conflicted age.…

Zustand: Good. A riveting, eyewitness account of the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and the end of the Cold War from the Newsweek Bureau Chief in that region at the time. Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, many still believe it was the words of President Ronald Regan, Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall , that brought the Cold War to an end. Michael Meyer disagrees, and in this extraordinarily compelling account, explains why. Drawing together breathtakingly vivid, on-the-ground accounts of the rise of Solidarity in Poland, the stealth opening of the Hungarian border, the Velvet Revolution in Prague, and the collapse of the infamous wall in Berlin, Meyer shows how American intransigence contributed little to achieving such world-shaking change. In his reporting from the frontlines of the revolution in Eastern Europe between 1988 and 1992, he interviewed a wide range of local leaders, including V clav Havel and Lech Walesa. Meyer's descriptions of the way their brave stands were decisive in bringing democracy to Eastern Europe provide a crucial refutation of a misunderstanding of history that has been deliberately employed to help push the United States into the intractable conflicts it faces today. …
