Description:
In this beautifully written history of America's formative period, a preeminent historian upends the traditional story of a young nation confidently marching to its continent-spanning destiny. The newly constituted United States actually emerged as a fragile, internally divided union of states contending still with European empires and other independent republics on the North American continent. Native peoples sought to defend their homelands from the flood of American settlers through strategic alliances with the other continental powers. The system of American slavery grew increasingly powerful and expansive, its vigorous internal trade in Black Americans separating parents and children, husbands and wives. Bitter party divisions pitted elites favoring strong government against those, like Andrew Jackson, espousing a democratic populism for white men. Violence was both routine and organized: the United States invaded Canada, Florida, Texas, and much of Mexico, and forcibly removed most of the Native peoples living east of the Mississippi. At the end of the period the United States, its conquered territory reaching the Pacific, remained internally divided, with sectional animosities over slavery growing more intense.
Taylor's elegant history of this tumultuous period offers indelible miniatures of key characters from Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth to Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Margaret Fuller. It captures the high-stakes political drama as Jackson and Adams, Clay, Calhoun, and Webster contend over slavery, the economy, Indian removal, and national expansion. A ground-level account of American industrialization conveys the

Phenomenal
Format: Paperback
This is one of few books that actually describe, in an accessible manner, how to control the mind during meditation. Particularly the last two chapters of Raja Yoga (the second part of the book is Patanjali) are some of the most valuable pages on meditation I have come across (easily 20+ books). Highly recommend for the practitioner.

Excellent little book
Format: Paperback
Excellent little book, with some of Patanjali's original text in Sanskrit along with a translation. I read a little bit every day. Great insights. i have no idea what the critic of this book is talking about. $6.95 for this book is a great deal, and I have absolutely no ties to the printers or sellers of this item.
