Synopsis

"America" is one of the most successful American history textbooks ever published. Maintaining the features that have always distinguished this classic textbook - lively and accessible narrative style, a keen balance of the political with social and cultural history, and exceptional value - the seventh edition introduces a completely redesigned, full-colour layout complemented by eye-catching maps and enhanced pedagogy. The seventh edition also introduces the new theme of environmental history. Carefully integrated throughout, this theme adds illuminating perspectives on how Americans have shaped-and been shaped by-the natural world.
