总结:Never before has a single richly illustrated volume encompassed the full sweep of our country's inventiveness, from Franlin's experiments with electricity to the dawn of the Atomic Age. More than one thousand rare documentary pictures are combined with 130,000 words of dramatic narrative in this, the first history of its kind ever published. . .
