A Nation Unlike Any Other : Essays
Gordon Wood
An urgent and stirring work, A Nation Unlike Any Other gathers writing from preeminent historian Gordon Wood to provide a deeply nuanced portrait of America’s origins. Written over the course of six decades, this work investigates the social, cultural, philosophical, and material aspects that drove the American Revolution and the formation of the early republic. Throughout his career, Wood emphasized the radical significance of the Revolution.
The questions he asks continue to burden Americans: How should we think about our past? How should we reconcile the inspiration we trace to the founding generation with the persistence of chattel slavery? Writing as a true humanist, Wood had an unparalleled genius to articulate a vision of American history that was both tragic and optimistic, reconciling the uncontrollable circumstances that Americans struggle against with their hope of creating a better future. With an introduction from Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Jack Rakove, A Nation Unlike Any Other emerges as a clarion call and a tribute to one of our greatest historians.
