篇幅雖短，但美國曆史一覽無餘。英文簡練，譯文準確，值得擁有！

內容簡介

　　從最初發現新大陸時期的殖民地，到奧巴馬當選總統的當今美國，《美國簡史》從政治、文化、社會、宗教、科技等維度展現瞭美國百多年來的發展曆程。
　　《斑斕閱讀·外研社英漢雙語百科書係：美國簡史（典藏版）》雖為簡史，卻囊括瞭影響美國曆史進程的大小事件，且視角客觀，既論及光明和發展，又不迴避黑暗和恥辱：殖民地時期，反對歐洲帝國壓迫的同時伴隨著對印第安人的驅逐；建國之父們將自由和平等寫進憲法，婦女和非裔美國人卻花瞭漫長的時間纔取得與白人男性同等的權利；一麵奉行孤立主義力圖避免捲入國際紛爭，一麵又在各大洲扮演國際警察的角色……

精彩書摘

　　《斑斕閱讀·外研社英漢雙語百科書係：美國簡史（典藏版）》：
　　The peoples ofAmerica in a revolutionary age
　　Though excluded from formal political participation, many American women supported the Patriot cause by boycotting British imports, including tea. (The national preference for coffee dates from this era.) Substituting homespun for British textiles signaled one's resistance to Parliamentary taxation.During the war, women gained managerial experience running farms and businesses for absent husbands and fathers. Elite women of Philadelphia, styling themselves Daughters of Liberty,raised funds for the Continental army Some women found gender implications in revolutionary ideology. If the framers of the new
　　government failed to "remember the Ladies," John Adams's wife,Abigail, warned him in 1776, only halfin jest, "we...will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation."
　　Native Americans maneuvered precariously amid the imperial struggles. In i763, Indians along the Great Lakes attacked British forts in an uprising known as Pontiac's Rebellion. The Proclamation ofi763 promised to respect Indian rights, but clashes continued as settlers pushed westward. During the Revolutionary War, economic ties,land conflicts, and other considerations influenced each tribe's loyalties and alliances. In the North Carolina backcountry, the Cherokee allied with the British and attacked colonialists' encroaclung settlements. In the Northwest Territory,local militia under a young Virginian, George
　　Rogers Clark, brutally attacked Shawnee, Delaware, Wyandot,and Mingo settlements. In upstate New York, pro-British Iroquois battled Continental troops allied with Tuscarora and Oneida warriors. Overall, England's defeat hastened white settlers'expansion into Indian lands. "Victory" for the colonists had very different meaning for Native Americans.
　　For the colonies' more than half-million African Americans, most of them enslaved, the imperial conflict brought opportunities and hazards. When a London court in i772 freed James Somersett, a Massachusetts slave whose master had brought him to England,other American slaves looked to England as a beacon offreedom.In i77s when Lord Dunmore, Virginia's royal governor, offered freedom to all able-bodied male slaves who would support the British, about a thousand responded. Eventually some 20,000 southern slaves fiocked to the British side. Only a few gained freedom, however; most succumbed to illness or were recaptured.
　　In the North, by contrast, many slaves and free blacks embraced the Patriot cause. Some even joined local militias or the Continental army. George Washington (himself a slave owner)rejected proposals to free slaves who served in the military,laconically warning that this would "render slavery more irksome for those stillin it. Nevertheless, talk ofnatural rights highlighted the paradox of slavery and stirred antislavery sentiments across the
　　North. As a Rhode Island slave who escaped from his master later recalled: "[W]hen I sawliberty poles and people all engaged for the support offreedom, I could not but...be pleased." Abolition lay decades in the future, but the American Revolution laid the groundwork.
