Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Using a thematic approach, this concise survey explores the many and varied threads of American history-social, intellectual, cultural, political, diplomatic, economic, and military-from the arrival of the first native American inhabitants thousand of years ago throught the crisis following the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington on September 11, 2001.

 

Irwin Unger, a Pulitzer Prize winning author, wrote this book after discovering from his own experiences teaching American History at the University of California at Davis and at NYU, that a thematic approach was much more interesting to students than a purely descriptive one.

 



From the Publisher

Maintaining his challenging "inquiry approach," Pulitzer Prize winning author Irwin Unger organizes each chapter around a specific question designed to challenge students to consider the complexity of the past. The classic coverage updated and expanded, this edition offers a more contemporary approach while remaining an interesting and absorbing introduction to American history. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
