The book is divided into several parts, each covering a different period in American history. Abbott begins with the arrival of the first European settlers and the establishment of the colonies, and goes on to discuss the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Reconstruction era. He also covers the rise of industrialization and the growth of cities, the expansion of the frontier, and the emergence of the United States as a world power.Throughout the book, Abbott provides a nuanced and thoughtful analysis of the complex issues that have shaped American history.
