Tuchman on Teddy Roosevelt's Mideast crisis /Alfred Kazin 's study of why Americans have always feared the city /Malcolm Cowley on Nathaniel Hawthorne in love /Edward Hoagland's haunting evocation of the real Johnny Appleseed /Bruce Catton on the Civil War, of course, but also on baseball /Louis Auchincloss on Henry Adams's unlikely sojourn in the South Seas /John Kenneth Galbraith dissecting the Great Depression /William Manchester recalling a hair~raising World War 11 hoax /Robert Silverberg's inquiry into the mystery of the mound builders /Stephen B. Oates on the grim career of Nat Turner /Wallace Stegner's luminous memoir of his Western boyhood /Francis Russell's meticulous reconstruction of the crime that sent Sacco and Vanzetti to the chair /David McCullough's surprising profile of Harriet Beecher Stowe/ Hughes Rudd's perilous World War II sojourn as a spotter pilot.
