50 Great American Places: Essential Historic Sites Across the U.S.

From Massachusetts to Florida, from Washington, D.C., to Hawaii, 50 Great American Places takes readers on a journey through American history. Sharing the inside stories of sites as old as Mesa Verde and Cahokia and as recently transformed as Silicon Valley and the Presidio of San Francisco, each essay provides historical and geographical context for these sites. Public historian Dr. Brent Glass, former director of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History, connects places, people and events to reveal a national narrative that is often surprising, sometimes tragic and always engaging.
