Harry Evans was the founding editor of Conde Nast Traveler, editorial director of US News and World Report, and President and Publisher of Random House, where he published a record number of bestsellers. He is English and was born in Manchester.
The real inventor of the steam engine. The creator of the bra. The man who invented modern banking. The creator of the computer operating system. These and scores of others are the characters that populate Harold Evans's rollicking, brilliant history of the men and women who made America great. Vast and beautifully designed with hundreds of duotones and photos throughout (many never before published), the book is itself a creation as grand as those it describes. Evans reveals the surprising truths behind many of the creations that made our modern world, as well as the lessons we can learn by studying the great entrepreneurs and innovators of the past two centuries.

评分一个国家能有如此多的对现代文明有着至关重要的发明,只有美国了。每一个发明都不是第一个人,而是将一个不完整的有众多问题的小发明变成了人们可以使用来改变生活的。这些发明人所付出的努力和坚持让人尊敬。而且并不是所有的发明者都得到了应有的回报。可歌可泣,在历史的长...
