Again -- Evil -- Generations -- Tommies -- Remembrance -- Conclusion. Long shadow.One of the most violent conflicts in the history of civilization, World War I has been strangely forgotten in American culture.

America, empire of liberty : a new history of the United States / by Reynolds, David,1952-(CARDINAL)160976;
Includes bibliographical references and index.It was Thomas Jefferson who envisioned the United States as a great "empire of liberty." This paradoxical phrase may be the key to the American saga: How could the anti-empire of 1776 become the world's greatest superpower? And how did the country that offered unmatched liberty nevertheless found its prosperity on slavery and the dispossession of Native Americans? In this new single-volume history spanning the entire course of US history--from 1776 through the election of Barack Obama--historian David Reynolds explains how tensions between empire and liberty have often been resolved by faith--both the evangelical Protestantism that has energized American politics for centuries and the larger faith in American righteousness that has driven the country's expansion.--From publisher description.Natives and Europeans -- Empire and liberties -- Independence and republicanism -- Liberty and security -- East and West -- Slave or free? -- North and South -- White and Black -- Capital and labor -- Reform and expansion -- War and peace -- From boom to bomb -- Red or dead? -- Rights and riots -- The impotence of omnipotence -- Détente and discontent -- Revolution and democracy -- Pride and prejudice.

In command of history : Churchill fighting and writing the Second World War / by Reynolds, David,1952-(CARDINAL)160976;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 540-544) and index.As Britain's prime minister from 1940 to 1945, Churchill courageously led his nation and the world away from appeasement, into war, and on to triumph over the Axis dictators. His classic six-volume account of those years has shaped our perceptions of the conflict and secured Churchill's place as its most important chronicler. This book explains how Churchill wrote this masterwork, and in the process enhances and often revises our understanding of one of history's most complex, vivid, and eloquent leaders. It forces us to reconsider much received wisdom about World War II, and peels back the covers from an unjustly neglected period of Churchill's life, his "second wilderness" years, 1945-1951.--From publisher description.
