Critical Praise
Publisher's Weekly gives Harold Evan's THEY MADE AMERICA a starred review! "Evan's profusely illustrated and elegantly written book offers the same breadth and scope as his previous bestseller, The American Century." He then goes on to say that "just as Edison was inspired by popular biographies of innovators before him, so might the next generation of scientific and commercial explorers find guidance in Evans' exciting survey."
"Superbly written and thoroughly researched," and assures the reader that Evans says "something different."
-TIME
Newsweek proclaims Evans's "democratization of history" is "most satisfying" and "expansive," a "snapshot of America."
