This brief edition portrays the rich fabric of social history - the experiences of ordinary men, women, and children - into more traditional political, diplomatic, and economic narrative to tell a comprehensive story of American history. It features coverage of pre-contact American Indian and West African cultures, early European explorations and American Indian-European contact, and updated treatment of the War of 1812, the Civil War military strategy, and the West in the post-Civil War years. There is also a chapter on everyday life and culture 1877-1920, analysis of Cold War foreign policy and extensive integration of social history into the domestic policy chapter. Coverage of the first two years of the Clinton administration is also provided. Emphasis on the history of the environment and technology is woven throughout.
