A high school textbook of American history through 1985. Includes test material of various types. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a good book to use in an advanced high school course or for a college course. It explains things in a very concise way. Still, the lack of art or images makes the reading a little dull. I recommend the text in conjunction with a standard history textbook, along with a text like Zinn's People's History of the United States or Loewen's Lies My Teacher Told Me. Furthermore, the book lacks adequate information on issues such as women's rights over time and racism throughout American history. The book, in my opinion, is told from the "winners' side."
