Historia
When the United States was founded in 1776, its citizens didn’t think of themselves as “Americans.” They were New Yorkers or Virginians or Pennsylvanians. It was decades later that the seeds of American nationalism—identifying with one’s own nation and supporting its broader interests—began to take root. But what kind of nationalism should Americans embrace? The state-focused and racist nationalism of Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson? Or the belief that the US Constitution made all Americans one nation, indivisible, which Daniel Webster and others espoused?

Biased and Unfocused
Revisado: 12-12-22
A biased, vapid, and meandering book that neither enlightens nor informs about the supposed subject; Daniel Webster. The author clearly thinks that the reader is more interested in his thoroughly unoriginal and banal commentary, than the historical figure on the cover. Even the thesis of the book is sloppily conceived and poorly articulated. A tour de force in how not to write a history book—or any book for that matter.
