Description

America's Promise is a concise, highly readable introduction to American History.

Designed to clearly explain major themes and events, it also captures the rich and often amusing character of the American people.

The strong narrative emphasizes public life and how individuals constructed public structures in which they lived and worked.

Including the latest scholarship in social, cultural, and political history, the work integrates the history and importance of women and minorities. To aid students in learning and reviewing, each chapter begins with a preview of the main ideas that will be discussed and ends with a conclusion that reinforces the key concepts.

Rather than being simply declaratory signposts, section headings highlight main ideas and help carry along the narrative.

A glossary defines main terms, and a timeline helps students keep track of events.

Selected readings are also included to encourage further reading and study.

Finally, carefully selected illustrations and maps portray, pinpoint, and illuminate important episodes in American history. The most concise and competitively priced book available, America's Promise is a breath of fresh air in the introductory market.
