A History of the American People Free Audiobook Download by Paul Johnson
A History of the American People by Paul Johnson is an audiobook about the history of America from its founding up to the present day. I listened to this book in Spanish and found it extremely interesting. The narrator was very clear and made it easy for me to follow along with each chapter as I listened.
The book starts by examining the years of 1763 to 1766. The author uses this time period to highlight that, regardless of where the colonists come from, all have a common bond: they are American. From there, it discusses how slavery is present in American politics and life style. Slavery ends with the Civil War, but racial discrimination continues up until the 1960s.
This audiobook is an interesting read if you are looking to learn more about the depth of history that is brought to life through the use of lectures. The audiobook is narrated by a different reader each chapter. In addition to providing a historical context, the audiobook dives into how some political and cultural climates were impacted by certain events in American History. What really stood out for me was how Johnson managed to bring out the spirit of America from the story of America's past. This audiobook gives a great starting point for breaking down what it means to be American and how our country has struggled and thrived in its development.
