Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "This landmark collection of writings by the illustrious contributors of The Atlantic Monthly is a one-of-a-kind education in the history of American ideas. What is 'the American idea'? It is the fractious, maddening approach to the conduct of human affairs that values equality despite its elusiveness, that values democracy despite its debasement, that values pluralism despite its messiness, that values the institutions of civic culture despite their flaws, and that values public life as something higher and greater than the sum of all our private lives. The founders of the magazine valued these things--and they valued the immense amount of effort it takes to preserve them from generation to generation. This extraordinary anthology brings together many of the magazine's most acclaimed and influential articles. 'Broken Windows,' by James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling, took on the problem of inner-city crime and gave birth to a new way of thinking about law enforcement. 'The Roots of Muslim Rage,' by Bernard Lewis, prophetically warned of the dangers posed to the West by rising Islamic extremism. 'Letter from Birmingham Jail,' by Martin Luther King, Jr., became one of the twentieth century's most famous reflections upon--and calls for--racial equality. And 'The Fifty-first State,' by James Fallows, previewed in astonishing detail the mess in which America would find itself in Iraq a full six months before the invasion.The collection also highlights some of The Atlantic's finest moments in fiction and poetry--from the likes of Twain, Whitman, Frost, Hemingway, Nabokov, and Bellow--affirming the central role of literature in defining and challenging American society." [publisher copy] Includes articles by W.E.B. Du Bois, Samantha Power, Robert A. Caro, Henry David Thoreau, many more. "This scintillating, infinitely varied and irresistibly readable collection of the best writing published in The Atlantic Monthly over the last 150 years is a revelation--of the quality of writing that a magazine can aspire to, and achieve, with stunning frequency; and of the power of words, occasional and otherwise, to make you think, laugh, shudder, wonder, and feel. The effect of browsing through this astonishing collection is to have one's faith in American culture and the republic of letters restored. The introductory headnotes briefly sketching how and in what context each piece came to press are invaluable."--Ric Burns, documentary filmmaker. "Readers can see the nation through the eyes of its finest writers, such as Henry James, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Walt Whitman, Martin Luther King, Jr., Helen Keller and, from more recent days, William Least Heat-Moon, Garrison Keillor and William Langewiesche, all of whose work shows up in this remarkable anthology."--Julia Keller, The Chicago Tribune. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, handsomely wrapped in a clean & bright jacket.…
