Product Review

America Past and Present integrates the social and political dimensions of American history into one rich chronological narrative, providing students with a full picture of the scope and complexity of the American past.

Writing in a lively narrative style to tell the story of all Americans–elite and ordinary, women and men, rich and poor, white majority and minorities–the authors, six active, publishing, and award-winning historians, bring history to life for introductory students.

 

In the new 8^th edition of America Past and Present, the authors have streamlined the coverage in the contemporary chapters and added a new feature that explores the connections between the past and the present.
