Greg Grandin, The End of the Myth: From the Frontier to the Border Wall in the Mind of America
Daniel Immerwahr, How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States
Walter Lafeber, Inevitable Revolutions: The United States in Central America
Stephen R. Platt, Autumn in the Heavenly Kingdom: China, the West, and the Epic Story of the Taiping Civil War
Clay Risen, The Crowded Hour: Theodore Roosevelt, the Rough Riders, and the Dawn of the American Century
Daniel Treuer, The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee: Native America from 1890 to the Present
and, just for kicks…
