Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is a powerful drama written with extraordinary narrative vitality. In this masterful book, David McCullough tells the intensely human story of those who marched with General George Washington in the year of the Declaration of Independence-when the whole American cause was riding on their success, without which all hope for independence would have been dashed and the noble ideals of the Declaration would have amounted to little more than words on paper. America's beloved and distinguished historian presents, in a book of breathtaking excitement, drama, and narrative force, the stirring story of the year of our nation's birth, 1776, interweaving, on both sides of the Atlantic, the actions and decisions that led Great Britain to undertake a war against her rebellious colonial subjects and that placed America's survival in the hands of George Washington. The present volume is an unabridged English translation of the 13th French edition of that historic manifesto, in which Le Corbusier expounded his technical and aesthetic theories, views on industry, economics, relation of form to function, the mass-production spirit, and much else. The first major exposition of his ideas appeared in Vers une Architecture (1923), a compilation of articles originally written by Le Corbusier for his own avant-garde magazine, L'Esprit Nouveau. For the Swiss-born architect and city planner Le Corbusier (Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, 1887-1965), architecture constituted a noble art, an exalted calling in which the architect combined plastic invention, intellectual speculation, and higher mathematics to go beyond mere utilitarian needs, beyond style, to achieve a pure creation of the spirit which established emotional relationships by means of raw materials. It's about a blended family of eccentric, colorful, oddly named artists falling in love, coming of age, dealing with grief and prejudice, and making really cool independent films - with just a dash of magic to make things interesting.

Bloch's own voice from the past was forged in an intensity of present-time experience. Bloch's commitment to teaching and writing history, teaching about the forceful, or surprising and shocking, "presences" of history's supposed past-tense experiences, remains seminal to the historian's craft. Where resides the historian's classroom? Who are the students and how do (and did) teachers come to be? What subject matter should be used to prod and provoke an often dormant humanity awake?
