About the book: 2004 / America is a great country, and the people who glorified it, who created its history, are known all over the world. For some it took years, for others a whole life... In the book you will find biographies of politicians (Brzezinski, Kissinger, Albright) and writers (Azimov, Dreiser, London), film actors (Brando, Garbo, Gable) and presidents ( Washington, Jefferson, Kennedy), athletes (Navratilova, Weissmuller) and inventors (Bell, Browning, Zvorykin) and many other famous people whose names are now forever associated with America. Not all of them were born in the USA; many came here from other countries at different times in search of a better life, and at first they were called somewhat disparagingly - emigrants. But their activities and hard work led to the fact that they received every right to be considered Americans. The hundred heroes of this book are just a small fraction of them..
