Thomas Nelson, 2011. 21st century. Format: OverDrive Adobe EPUB eBook, Filesize: 2043kB. Format: OverDrive Kindle Book. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Read. History. Nonfiction. HTML:America began to breathe easy at the close of the Cold War and loosened its grip on the fear of nuclear confrontation for the first time since World War Two. Peace was palpable, but in retrospect the years between 1988 and 2008 were as rocky as they were uncertain. Turbulence, not tranquility, marked the turn of the century: the war on drugs, race riots, values debates, deep economic shifts, and the growing threat of terrorism on U.S. soil that would tragically play out on September 11, 2001.<br /> In this, the third volume of <i>America: The Last Best Hope</i>, William J. Bennett explores America's recent and momentous history: the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of global Communism; sweeping changes in political and popular culture; the war on terror and the election of America's first African American president. Surveying the players, personalities, and pivotal moments, Bennett captures this recent chapter in the American story with piercing insight and unrelenting optimism. Media Type: eBook.
