A People And a Nation brief seventh edition

The 7th edition preserves the text's basic approach to American history as a story of all the American people. It is known for a number of strengths, not only the emphasis on social history, which distinguished initially but also for its well-respected author team, its attention to race and racial identity and its balanced and engaging narrative. The text is a spirited narrative that challenges students to think about the meaning of American history. The thoughtful inclusion of everyday people, cultural diversity, work and popular culture brings history to life, engaging even the most disinterested student reader. New to this edition is "Links to the World", which discusses the relationship between America and the rest of the world.
