Forgotten Heroes: Inspiring American Portraits from Our Leading Historians

by Susan Ware, David McCullough Narrated by Susan Ware

Overview

For Forgotten Heroes, thirty-five prominent historians chose their favorite stories of unsung American figures. From Johnny Appleseed and John Quincy Adams to abolitionist Sojourner Truth and Margaret Anderson, the publisher of James Joyce's Ulysses, these profiles remind us that history depends upon the great deeds of women and men, whether famous or humble. Designed for delight, instruction, and inspiration, this collection includes nearly as many women as men, and nearly as many people before 1900 as after- little-known or forgotten heroes who deserve to be remembered.
