Currents in American History
A Brief History of the United States
by Terry D.
Bilhartz and Alan C. Elliott
"Bilhartz
and Elliott have accomplished something quite extraordinary. They have
written a clear, smart, and yes, even entertaining concise history of the
United States" (Bryant Simon, Temple University)
"Innovative and lively"
(Kyle Longley, Arizona State University)
"Artfully written"
(Michael L. Tate, University of Nebraska at Omaha)
Description:
The
history of the United States is a fascinating tale of intrigue, adventure,
and progress, with many surprising twists and turns--and Currents in
American History is designed to convey the defining elements of the
story in an engaging, quick-paced narrative. Rather than covering a bit of
everything, it traces the American people's drive to expand liberty and
equality through important turning points in the journey as represented by
fourteen pivotal days. Far shorter than most standard texts, this
affordable work makes it possible for students to conceptualize America's
complex history by assessing the causes and consequences of fourteen
momentous days that changed the nation's course.
Currents in American
History includes an online Student Learning Center that provides
access to primary sources; audio and visual materials; original maps,
photos, drawing, posters, and paintings; self-testing quizzes and
drag-and-drop exercises; tools for organizing, printing, and exporting
primary documents; and more. Visit it at
