Story
In this Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, historian Barbara Tuchman brings to life the people and events that led up to World War I. This was the last gasp of the Gilded Age, of Kings and Kaisers and Czars, of pointed or plumed hats, colored uniforms, and all the pomp and romance that went along with war. How quickly it all changed...and how horrible it became.

History of the American Frontier 1763-1893 by Frederic L. Paxson, professor of history at the University of Wisconsin. Houghton Mifflin Company 1924. Pulitzer Prize-winner in History, 1925. The prize-winning History of the American Frontier, 1763-1893 covers a very wide sweep of topics, with unusual strength in handling violent relations between the frontiersman and the Indians. Paxson emphasized the impact on people of the process of moving to the west, downplaying the static aspects of specific localities.

Publisher's Summary
Hailed "an extraordinary novel of men at war" (Washington Post), The Last Ship is the book that inspired the TNT mini series starring Eric Dane, Rhona Mitra, and Adam Baldwin, with Michael Bay as executive producer.
The unimaginable has happened: The world has been plunged into all-out nuclear war. Sailing near the Arctic Circle, the USS Nathan James is relatively unscathed, but the future is grim and Captain Thomas is facing mutiny from the tattered remnants of his crew. With civilization in ruins, he urges those that remain - 152 men and 26 women - to pull together in search of land. Once they reach safety, however, the men and women on board realize that they are the earth's last remaining survivors - and they've all been exposed to radiation. When none of the women seems able to conceive, fear sets in. Will this be the end of humankind?
This thrilling tale of post apocalyptic suspense is perfect for readers of Going Home by A. American, Lights Out by DavidCrawford, The End and The Long Road by G. Michael Hopf, and One Second After by William Forstchen.

Dull and boring
Had potential to be a great book. Had great story line but old mate just dribbles words about not for most of the time. Recommend it for when you need to be put to sleep.

Excellent Book
What an excellent book on leadership, seamanship, human spirit, strength and perseverance as well as a damn good yarn. I found it hard to believe the author of such a wonderful book that demonstrates the worse but also the best in us all ended his life by suicide.

bad, just bad
I can honestly say I have never been so disappointed in a book since the man in the high castle. fans of the TV show dont waste your time or money, it's a totally different setting and story.
very poorly read, the narrator has the distinctive honour of being the only one I've come across on audible that's managed to put me to sleep. a more talented narrator might have been able to salvage this waste of a credit.

So slow and boring
The main character in this book comes off as a pompous ass and the pace of the book is far too slow. Is there a way to get my money back....?
