‘It was providential’: Noonan, McCullough and July 4

July 3, 2009 By admin

The Peggy Noonan we love when we love her, writing about popular historian David McCullough, of whom she says, “He is admired by normal people…” — a fine phrase.

1776

It’s too late to order 1776 or one of McCullough’s other excellent books from Amazon, should you be jonesing for a 4th of July fix.

However, if you download the audio book, you get the added bonus of hearing McCullough read it himself in that reassuringly familiar voice.
