Designed to encourage critical thinking about history, the MAJOR
PROBLEMS IN AMERICAN HISTORY series introduces readers to both
primary sources and analytical essays on important topics in
American history. The collection of essays and documents in MAJOR
PROBLEMS IN NORTH AMERICAN BORDERLANDS surveys the North American
past from the point of view of its borderlands. The essays and
documents discuss people and events readers may find familiar, such
as the founding of early European colonies, U.S. independence, the
War of 1812, the U.S.-Mexican War, and Prohibition, but less
widely-known events and actors--expanding native peoples, the
Bourbon reforms of the Spanish Empire, fleeing slaves and servants,
border surveyors, the Mexican Revolution, and key U.S. immigration
legislation--also take center stage. In one sense this volume is
clearly a work of U.S. history, but it is also Canadian and Mexican
and native history with an overriding theme that we must take into
account the meetings of different peoples and nations if we are to
understand our past and present. This text presents a carefully
selected group of readings organized to allow readers to evaluate
primary sources, test the interpretations of distinguished
historians, and draw their own conclusions. Each chapter includes
introductions, source notes, and suggested readings.
