A new addition to the Oxford History of the United States, Wood's superb book brings together much of what historians now know about the first quarter-century of the nation's history under the Constitution. Acknowledged as the leading historian of the period, Wood brings authority and easy style to a tough task—wrestling into order a period of unusual anxiety, confusion, crisis and unbridled growth in the nation's affairs. The emergence of democracy and individualism is his overarching theme. No surprise there, for he's the author of a celebrated work (The Radicalism of the American Revolution) on just that topic. In this new work, he concentrates more on events, institutions, politics and diplomacy than in his earlier books yet proves himself a master of these topics, too. He offers no newfangled approaches, no strongly stated positions, no contests with other historians. Instead, we get the distillation of a lifetime's study and reflection about the era between Washington's presidency and the end of the War of 1812. A triumph of the historian's art, Wood's book will not soon be supplanted. No one interested in the era should miss it.

还是有《美利坚共和国的创建》的影子。

评分虽然却是略微偏向杰斐逊、贬低汉密尔顿，但历史写到这个份上确实到了极限，看他的叙事又学习了不少真是强悍。史实详实自然不言而喻，不然不可能是牛津系列的。用700余页写了30年还让人有意犹未尽的感觉，真是不错啊，给了我这么多可以抄袭的素材。
