This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A wise, humane and beautifully written book." —Bret Stephens, Wall Street Journal From the best-selling author of Benjamin Franklin comes this remarkable work that will help redefine our notion of American heroism. Americans have long been obsessed with their heroes, but the men and women dramatically portrayed here are not celebrated for the typical banal reasons contained in Founding Fathers hagiography. Effortlessly challenging those who persist in revering the American history status quo and its tropes and falsehoods, Morgan, now ninety-three, continues to believe that the past is just not the way it seems.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from True Stories of Famous Men and Women of America for Young People: Containing Full Accounts of the Lives and Heroic Deeds of About Half a Hundred Illustrious Men and Women Who Have Made Our Country Great and Our Flag Respected Throughout the World It is the province Of these biographies not only to entertain by the narration of wonderful achievements, but to conduct the reader into the private lives and characters of these great men and women, to encourage and inspire, and by the force of example to awaken a spirit of emulation in the young. In these true sto ries of famous men and women we have a complete picture of their public and pri vate records woven skillfully together. The early lives of these illustrious charac ters with their humble environments - aye, Often discomforts, struggles and poverty - will find perfect counterparts in the circumstances and surroundings of many of our young readers. Here the ambitious but hampered youth will find their heroes and heroines have traveled the same roads which they themselves are now treading, and encountered and struggled with the same or similar difficul ties and temptations as those which they are now battling against. There is nothing so potent in its influence for good as the examples of truly great leaders. It would be hard to overestimate the power which the lives of Washington, Franklin, Frances Willard, and other noble men and women treated in this book have had in the past and will continue to have upon succeeding generations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred Famous Americans To present a series of brief and interesting sketches of some of the greatest men and women of America - to group them by the callings in which their most important work has been done, to describe the events of their lives; to tell what they have been to their companions, to their professions, and to the great interests of their nation and the world at large - setting forth from different standpoints their influence upon their own times and the future. The endeavor has been to tell the stories of these great lives fairly and truthfully, omitting for the most part all anecdotes and purely personal matters, while making clear the distinguishing traits of each individual, not only as an individual, but also as a successful follower of his or her vocation. In this way some idea has also been given, it is hoped, of the most notable achievements in the history of the various professions here represented. It is not claimed that this selection forms a perfect list of our greatest men and women: many names having been omitted that rank with those given; but even in the wide difference of Opinion existing upon the merits of fame, it is believed that the characters herein described will be found to be a fair representation of those who have had the strongest influence upon our history. The compiler has been much aided in mak ing the selection by the advice - most generously bestowed - of several authors.
