As much as anyone alive today, he understands the soul of our country. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eOur America\u003c\/i\u003e, Burns has assembled the images that, for him, best embody nearly two hundred years of the American experiment, taken by some of our most reknowned photographers and by others who worked in obscurity. We see America's vast natural beauty as well as its dynamic cities and communities. There are striking images of war and civil conflict, and of communities drawing together across lines of race and class. Our greatest leaders appear alongside regular folks living their everyday lives. The photos talk to one another across boundaries and decades and, taken together, they capture the impossibly rich and diverse perspectives and places that comprise the American experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Burns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Knopf Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 12.50w x 2.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780385353014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2022 pg. 14\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/30\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2022 pg. 13","brand":"Knopf Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40562793152627,"sku":"9.78039E+12","price":84.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_fe2c1228-8a49-4b91-be47-603cee94c86c.jpg?v=1667918046","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/our-america-a-photographic-history-9780385353014","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
