Another tremendous book by Nathaniel Philbrick, a master of narrative history whose previous work, In The Heart of the Sea, was an inspiration to me while working on The Wager.
~100 pages in and really having fun with The Rush, Nathaniel Philbrick's new history of the California Gold Rush. It captures some of the seething, hot-brained craziness at the base of California history, and how it pushed the US toward the Civil War.View quoted post on X
Congrats. I’ve been eagerly awaiting this new book by @Steven_Hyden — a stupendous writer and music critic.
Hey, my new book is out today! It’s called IS THIS IT: THE NEVER-ENDING RISE & FALL OF THE STROKES (AND ROCK N ROLL) and it’s available wherever you buy books as a hardcover, Kindle or audiobook!View quoted post on X
