About this book
With Americans of Past and Present Days by Jean Jules Jusserand is a distinguished collection of essays exploring the deep historical and cultural connections between France and the United States. Written by the French ambassador to the U.S. during a pivotal era, the book highlights shared values, key historical events, and influential figures that have shaped the relationship between the two nations.
Jusserand covers diverse topics, from French support during the American Revolution and the influence of Abraham Lincoln to the development of Washington, D.C., and early 20th-century intellectual exchanges. His insights reveal a profound admiration for American ideals and achievements, alongside a thoughtful reflection on transatlantic cooperation.
Winner of the first Pulitzer Prize for History in 1917, this work offers a heartfelt tribute to the friendship and mutual respect that continue to define Franco-American relations. It remains an inspiring read for those interested in history, diplomacy, and cultural exchange.
