American Writers Supplement XX

"American History" examines the eras, events, and movements that have shaped U.S. history. Compelling narratives offer a wealth of factual information and also provide readers with insight into the significance of the past and its many legacies. Fully cited quotations from historical figures, eyewitnesses, letters, speeches and writings bring vibrancy and authority to the text. Sidebars, time lines, indexes and annotated bibliographies appear in all volumes.
