History Matters brings together selected essays by beloved historian David McCullough, some published here for the first time, written at different points over the course of his long career but all focused on the subject of his lifelong passion: the importance of history in understanding our present and future. Edited by McCullough's daughter, Dorie McCullough Lawson, and his longtime researcher, Michael Hill, History Matters is a tribute to a master historian and offers fresh insights into McCullough's enduring interests and writing life. The book also features a foreword by Jon Meacham. McCullough highlights the importance of character in political leaders, with Harry Truman and George Washington serving as exemplars of American values like optimism and determination. He shares his early influences, from the books he cherished in his youth to the people who mentored him. He also pays homage to those who inspired him, such as writer Paul Horgan and painter Thomas Eakins, illustrating the diverse influences on his writing as well as the influence of art. Rich with McCullough's signature grace, curiosity, and narrative gifts, these essays offer vital lessons in viewing history through the eyes of its participants, a perspective that McCullough believed was crucial to understanding the present as well as the past. History Matters is testament to McCullough's legacy as one of the great storytellers of this nation's history and of the lasting promise of American ideals.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1273023</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1273023</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McCullough, David G.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1273023246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668098998/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States]]></title><description><![CDATA["Today in the United States, there are more than five hundred federally recognized Indigenous nations comprising nearly three million people, descendants of the fifteen million Native people who once inhabited this land. The centuries-long genocidal program of the US settler-colonial regimen has largely been omitted from history. Now, for the first time, acclaimed historian and activist Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz offers a history of the United States told from the perspective of Indigenous peoples and reveals how Native Americans, for centuries, actively resisted expansion of the US empire. With growing support for movements such as the campaign to abolish Columbus Day and replace it with Indigenous Peoples' Day and the Dakota Access Pipeline protest led by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States is an essential resource providing historical threads that are crucial for understanding the present. In An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States, Dunbar-Ortiz adroitly challenges the founding myth of the United States and shows how policy against the Indigenous peoples was colonialist and designed to seize the territories of the original inhabitants, displacing or eliminating them. And as Dunbar-Ortiz reveals, this policy was praised in popular culture, through writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Walt Whitman, and in the highest offices of government and the military. Shockingly, as the genocidal policy reached its zenith under President Andrew Jackson, its ruthlessness was best articulated by US Army general Thomas S. Jesup, who, in 1836, wrote of the Seminoles: "The country can be rid of them only by exterminating them." Spanning more than four hundred years, this classic bottom-up peoples' history radically reframes US history and explodes the silences that have haunted our national narrative"--Publisher.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1153474</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1153474</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dunbar-Ortiz, Roxanne]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1153474246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780807013076/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[History Matters]]></title><description><![CDATA[In this posthumous collection of thought-provoking essays--many never published before--Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and bestselling author David McCullough affirms the value of history, how we can be guided by its lessons, and the enduring legacy of American ideals.

For those who inhabited what we now think of as the Renaissance, Palmer argues, it was "a darker, grimmer age than the 'dark ages' that preceded it." The book, then, is as much about the real Renaissance as it is about our constructions of it, taking a close look at how the myth of the Renaissance as a golden age came about. Palmer ably shows how this myth was constructed for different political reasons at different times, and she contrasts it with the lived reality of the actual Renaissance, which she sees as a troubled period defined by the attempt to end centuries of war and conflict by way of a revival of the educational aims and methods of ancient Rome. The author peppers her book with fifteen mini-biographies ranging from famous figures-including Michelangelo, Machiavelli, and Lucrezia Borgia-to lesser-known ones, examining why history remembers some characters over others and showing in detail how different figures struggled with the trials and tribulations of their time"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1242313</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1242313</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Palmer, Ada]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1242313246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Myth of A Golden Age</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780226837970/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lies My Teacher Told Me]]></title><description><![CDATA["A graphic adaptation of the bestselling book about what most American history textbooks get wrong"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1175890</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1175890</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Loewen, James W.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1175890246</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>A Graphic Adaptation</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781620977033/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Black AF History]]></title><description><![CDATA["From acclaimed columnist and political commentator Michael Harriot, a searingly smart and bitingly hilarious retelling of American history that corrects the record and showcases the perspectives and experiences of Black Americans. America's backstory is a whitewashed mythology implanted in our collective memory. It is the story of the pilgrims on the Mayflower building a new nation. It is George Washington's cherry tree and Abraham Lincoln's log cabin. It is the fantastic tale of slaves that spontaneously teleported themselves here with nothing but strong backs and negro spirituals. It is a sugarcoated legend based on an almost true story. It should come as no surprise that the dominant narrative of American history is blighted with errors and oversights--after all, history books were written by white men with their perspectives at the forefront. It could even be said that the devaluation and erasure of the Black experience is as American as apple pie. In Black AF History, Michael Harriot presents a more accurate version of American history. Combining unapologetically provocative storytelling with meticulous research based on primary sources as well as the work of pioneering Black historians, scholars, and journalists, Harriot removes the white sugarcoating from the American story, placing Black people squarely at the center. With incisive wit, Harriot speaks hilarious truth to oppressive power, subverting conventional historical narratives with little-known stories about the experiences of Black Americans. From the African Americans who arrived before 1619 to the unenslavable bandit who inspired America's first police force, this long overdue corrective provides a revealing look into our past that is as urgent as it is necessary.

Ninety-five percent of the native population signed the petition, causing the annexation treaty to fail in the U.S. Senate. This event was unknown to many contemporary Hawaiians until Noenoe K. Silva rediscovered the petition in the process of researching this book. With few exceptions, histories of Hawai'i have been based exclusively on English-language sources. They have not taken into account the thousands of pages of newspapers, books, and letters written in the mother tongue of native Hawaiians. By rigorously analyzing many of these documents, Silva fills a crucial gap in the historical record. In so doing, she refutes the long-held idea that native Hawaiians passively accepted the erosion of their culture and loss of their nation, showing that they actively resisted political, economic, linguistic, and cultural domination. Drawing on Hawaiian-language texts, primarily newspapers produced in the nineteenth century and early twentieth, Silva demonstrates that print media was central to social communication, political organizing, and the perpetuation of Hawaiian language and culture. A powerful critique of colonial historiography, Aloha Betrayed provides a much-needed history of native Hawaiian resistance to American imperialism.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C795218</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C795218</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Silva, Noenoe K.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/795218246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Native Hawaiian Resistance to American Colonialism</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780822333494/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not "a Nation of Immigrants"]]></title><description><![CDATA["The common assumption that the United States is a "nation of immigrants" camouflages the reality that the US is a colonialist settler state"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1015285</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1015285</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dunbar-Ortiz, Roxanne]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1015285246</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>Settler Colonialism, White Supremacy, and A History of Erasure and Exclusion</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780807036303/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fifth Sun]]></title><description><![CDATA["Five hundred years ago, in November 1519, Hernando Cortés walked along a causeway leading to the capital of the Aztec kingdom and came face to face with Moctezuma.

Those who eluded death had lost their homes, families, and entire way of life. Their response was quintessentially Jewish. From a people with a long-history of self-narration, survivors gathered in groups and wrote books, yizkor books, remembering all that had been destroyed. Jane Ziegelman's Once There Was a Town takes readers on a journey through this largely uncharted body of writing and the vanished world it depicts. Once There Was a Town resounds with the voices of rich and poor, shopkeepers and tradespeople, scholars and peddlers, Zionists and Communists, men and women telling stories of the towns that were their homes. Stops are made in the bustling market squares where Jewish merchants catered to local farmers; study houses where men recited Torah; kitchens where homemakers baked 20-pound loaves of bread; cemeteries where mourners conversed with departed loved ones and wooded groves where young couples met for the occasional moonlit tryst. Of the many towns on Ziegelman's itinerary, she always circles back to Luboml, her family's ancestral shtetl and the point of departure for her own journey of discovery. In conversation with classics by IB Singer and Roman Vishniac, Once There Was a Town is a landmark of rediscovery, and a love song to a vanished world"--Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1300478</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1300478</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ziegelman, Jane]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1300478246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Memory Books of A Lost Jewish World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250284334/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[How We Disappear]]></title><description><![CDATA[A brilliant foray into the nature of information, of history, and of making meaning in the face of death and decay.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1325590</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1325590</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mullaney, Thomas S.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1325590246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Personal History of Information</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781324020783/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
