Remontándose brevemente a la formación geológica de Norteamérica y a las culturas nativas hasta 1500, Black recorre la llegada de europeos y africanos esclavizados hasta 1770 y los conflictos entre colonos y nativos, y entre las potencias europeas, que condujeron a la dominación británica. Tras una larga guerra civil de más de treinta años entre el Norte y el Sur, la sociedad estadounidense se reconstruye y llega a convertirse en una gran potencia, también colonial. Las dos guerras mundiales en el siglo XX enmarcan grandes cambios sociales. Tras ellas, Estados Unidos queda constituido como la gran superpotencia mundial.El autor analiza los factores que dividen actualmente la sociedad americana y su economía, en unos años de tremendos cambios geopolíticos, y ofrece un libro de gran interés para tratar de entender las numerosas tensiones de la actualidad. 10
