The Glory And The Dream by William Manchester

A Narrative History of America, 1932–1972

A sweeping narrative history of the United States from the depths of the Great Depression through the early 1970s, charting political leaders, key events, cultural shifts, and the nation’s changing mood; it blends detailed portraits of presidents and policymakers with analysis of domestic policy, foreign affairs, and popular sentiment to trace the arc from New Deal optimism to the disillusionment of Vietnam and Watergate.
