Morison, a renowned historian and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, meticulously chronicled the formative years of the United States, from the late colonial period through the Civil War. His nuanced analysis and vivid narratives brought to life the struggles, triumphs, and complexities that shaped the nation’s early development.
