Expertly steering readers through the often tumultuous and
exhilarating history of the United States, from its early modern
Native American roots to twenty-first-century neoliberalism and the
shifting political climate of the past decade, this highly readable
textbook provides a compelling overview of American development
over the last five centuries. This book avoids either celebratory
or condemnatory rhetoric to present a critical examination of
domestic America and its interaction with the rest of the world.
Balancing coverage of political, social, cultural, and economic
history, each chapter also includes a wealth of features to
facilitate learning: Timelines situating key events in their wider
chronology Lists of topics covered within each chapter for easy
reference Concept boxes discussing selected issues in more detail
Historiography boxes exploring key debates Chapter summaries
offering condensed outlines of the main themes of each chapter
Further reading lists guiding readers to additional resources Maps
and images bringing to life important events and figures from
America's history Clearly and engagingly written and positioning
America's narrative within the wider global context, this textbook
is particularly accessible for non-US students and is the perfect
introduction for those new to US history. This textbook is also
supported by a companion website offering interactive content
including a timeline, multiple-choice quizzes, and links to
selected web resources.
