Great Minds of American History (1998)
Great Minds of American History (1998) An extraordinary history experience! Roger Mudd, an acclaimed journalist with uncommon historical instincts, applies his craft in conversations with five of America's top living historians: Gordon Wood (on the American Revolution); Richard White (on the American West); James McPherson (on the Civil War); David McCullough (on America's forgotten period, 1865-1914); and Stephen Ambrose (on World War II and the post war era). This is as close as we will get to asking these authorities gut questions about their craft and their unvarnished opinions. Some of the results are surprising. Kudos to American Heritage for facilitating this journey into the minds of five outstanding historians.
