Huge in scope yet still exacting in focus, David McCullough's 1776 is as much about the people that made the nation, as it is about the birth of the nation itself. Celebrate the eclectic history of the United States with this in-depth look at 1,000 prominent moments from the last 250 years that have helped shape the nation.

B&N Reads Great American Novels: A Timeless Reading List | READ MORE
Book | To Kill a Mockingbird (Pulitzer Prize Winner) By Harper Lee.
Book | The Great Gatsby By F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Book | Beloved (Pulitzer Prize Winner) By Toni Morrison.
A story of racial injustice told through the eyes of a young girl named Scout living in the south in the 1930s, this Pulitzer Prize-winning classic is a staple in American literature. Set against the backdrop of Jazz Age New York, F. Scott Fitzgerald's story is one of class divides, moral depravity and the death of the American Dream. A multilayered story of hauntings and hallowed ground, motherhood and memory. Long considered Morrison's masterwork, this is an incomparable novel.
