Book description
'Dazzling. Mind-altering. World-changing. A once-in-a-generation contribution' NAOMI KLEIN'Sweeping and provocative... groundbreaking' AMITAV GHOSH'Will transform your understanding of the modern world' JONATHAN KENNEDYFrom a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian comes the first definitive history of the Western hemisphere, a sweeping five-century narrative of North and South America that redefines our understanding of both continents.The story of the United States' unique sense of itself was forged facing south - no less than Latin America's was indelibly stamped by the looming colossus to the north.In this stunningly original reinterpretation of the New World, Professor Greg Grandin reveals how the Americas emerged from constant, turbulent engagement with each other, shedding new light on well-known historical figures like Bartolomé de las Casas, Simón Bolívar and Woodrow Wilson, as well as lesser-known actors such as the Venezuelan Francisco de Miranda, who almost lost his head in the French Revolution and conspired with Alexander Hamilton to free America from Spain.America, América traverses half a millennium, from the Spanish Conquest - the greatest mortality event in human history - through the eighteenth-century wars for independence and the Monroe Doctrine, to the coups and revolutions of the twentieth century. This monumental work of scholarship fundamentally changes our understanding of Spanish and English colonialism, slavery and racism, the rise of universal humanism, and the role of social democracy in staving off authoritarian impulses.At once comprehensive and accessible, America, América shows how the United States and Latin America together shaped the laws, institutions, and ideals that govern the modern world. Drawing on a vast array of sources, and told with authority and flair, this is a genuinely new history of the New World.'Masterful and erudite yet absolutely riveting' ADA FERRER'A major and desperately needed synthesis of the Americas' NED BLACKHAWK'An awe-inspiring masterpiece' SAMUEL MOYN* Professor Greg Grandin won the Pulitzer Prize for Non-fiction in 2020 with his book The End of the Myth.
