About the Book

For introductory-level American History Courses. This major revision of a path breaking text weaves together the complex interaction of social, political, and historical forces that have shaped the United States and from which the American peoplehave evolved by telling stories of people and of the nation and emphasizing that American history has never been the preserve of any particular region. The text's trademark continentalapproach has been expanded to incorporate a greater hemispheric perspective, while a new community and memory feature analyzes the roleand the conflictsof historical memory in shaping communities' understanding of the past. The Out of Many Media and Research Update brings together a wide array of assets to provide a completely integrated learning experience.
