Synopsis: This book seeks to improve upon a textbook grounded in a compelling narrative history of the American experience. An engaging book focused on political and economic developments but animated by colorful characters, informed by balanced analysis and social texture, and guided by the unfolding of key events. Those classic principles, combined with a handy format and low price, have helped make the book one of the most popular and well-respected American history textbooks. This Tenth Brief Edition of America features a number of important changes designed to make the text more teachable and classroom-friendly. Chief among them are major structural changes, including the joining of several chapters to reduce the overall number from thirty-four to thirty-two as well as the resequencing of several chapters to make the narrative flow more smoothly for students.
