First edition, first printing of the Harper Collins edition. "A rich and rewarding journey with an all-star cast of guides. I'll pick it up again and again." - Tom Brokaw. "In this newly revised and updated edition, two of our most distinguished historians, Stephen Ambrose and Douglas Brinkley, bring together a stunning collection of eyewitness accounts and illustrations that chronicles the American experience from the perspectives of those who participated in its making. Originally edited in 1939 by Henry Steele Commager and Allan Nevins, Witness to America includes more than 150 works drawn from more than two hundred years of American history, from the first shots of the Revolutionary War to the closing of the Twentieth Century. From Patrick Henry's rousing "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death!" speech to the Virginia House of Burgesses, to John Brown's stand at Harper's Ferry; from Franklin D. Roosevelt's promise of a New Deal to Neil Armstrong's account of walking on the moon, this sweeping volume brings the milestones in American history vividly to life. Here are unique and revealing selections from such historical figures as John Adams, Walt Whitman, Mark Twain, Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy, as well as influential individuals including Booker T. Washington, Charles Lindbergh, Ernie Pyle, Rosa Parks, and Betty Friedan. While many of the selections come from notable citizens, most are from ordinary Americans - schoolteachers, students, homemakers, pioneers, and soldiers - who describe the everyday events that have epitomized American life over the course of its history. Witness to America Sweeps across the vast territory that is our nation, illuminating the movements, ideas, inventions, and events that have shaped and defined us - from the Pony Express to the PC; from the frontier to the rise of suburbia; from farming to modernization and the information age. Within these pages discover the art of whaling, learn about survival on the gold rush trail, experience the glory and truama of war, and glean new insight on the great leaders. Here are debates and speeches, diary entires, letters, memoirs court records, and more - including many first-person accounts taht make history come alive as never before, such as a powerful description of the atomic explosion from a correspondent on the Enola Gay, and a young student's evaluation of the changing roles of women at her high school. The selections explore the diverse facets of America's cultural and political heritage and the constant shift and flux of everyday life, indelibly demonstrating both the variety and vitality of the American character. Illustrated with spectacular photographs, drawings, and paintings and featuring a 74-minute audio CD with actual clips and dramatizations of many of the entries, Witness to America is a fascinating, highly readable, and entertaining collection that shows us what America is - and where it may go - as it enters the next century." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
