United States of America. As the dust settled from the Revolutionary War, America’s founding fathers hashed out a political system that was entirely novel for an era in which monarchs ruled most countries around the world.

The extraordinary life of the world\'s greatest engineer who pioneered air brakes, natural gas, and alternating current electricity.George Westinghouse was a quiet man who avoided the spotlight, but his inventions changed the world and propelled America into the 20th century and beyond.
