Description
This United States history textbook presents a survey of the political, social and cultural development of the early and modern United States with emphasis on the origins of the basic American institutions and ideals, from European contact to modern times and the social and cultural development of the modern United States, with emphasis on the economic, social and technological changes and the rise of the United States as a world power. Shaped with a clear political chronology, it reflects the variety of individual experiences and kaleidoscope of cultures that is American society. While maintaining its emphasis on the importance of social movements, immigrant society, and regional and political differences in American history, this work also brings attention to global influences and America's role in the world.
