The Men Who United the States

The book highlights explorers, inventors, and mavericks who contributed to the nation’s unity. I'm curious how the author chose which stories to tell and what themes guided those choices.

Reading about their inventions and adventures made me wonder how much of their courage and creativity are missing today. Did these stories inspire others to think differently about progress?

The narrative feels lively and compelling, but I wonder how much creative interpretation went into bringing these figures to life without sacrificing accuracy.
