　　In America Reborn, journalist and historian Martin Walker

defines twentieth-century America through the portraits of

twenty-six American individuals whose accomplishments, innovations

and ideals propelled the United States to a position of global

dominance.

Here are the thoughts and beliefs of politicians and performers,

thinkers and doers, capitalists and revolutionaries, immigrants and

the native born. From Teddy Roosevelt's imperial ambitions to Bill

Clinton's global vision; Emma Goldman’s radical ideals to William

F. Buckley's profound conservatism; Albert Einstein's elegant

theories to Katharine Hepburn's elegant delivery-the biographical

essays that make up this narrative show us the variety of American

archetypes and offer a vision of how strong individualism has

always been the bedrock of (helped make up) the American

character.
