Synopsis

The American Past emphasizes political history, yet provides balanced coverage of social, economic, and cultural events. Conlin's lively, literary narrative captures and keeps student interest. This textbook is appropriate for the American History survey course at both two-year and four-year schools. Features: * The basic production values that are a hallmark of the Harcourt Press keep this classic textbook remarkably affordable. * Conlin presents material in fifty-one manageable chapters, assisting student comprehension. * Each chapter contains one of two recurring boxed features, How They Lived or Notable People. New to this edition: * Expanded coverage of Pre-Columbian America highlights a major revision of the early chapters. * Two chapters in early nineteenth century history have been combined to form a new consolidated chapter on the social and cultural history of the Jacksonian period. * Conlin has thoroughly revised and updated chapters addressing recent history, including adding one new chapter. * The fifth edition includes increased coverage of both native American and environmental history integrated throughout the text.
