Covering United States history to 1877, this is the first volume of a mainstream text featuring a strong social and thematic narrative. The authors weave the rich fabric of social history - the experience of ordinary men, women and children - into the political, diplomatic and economic history. Changes made for this fourth edition include expanded coverage of native Americans before Columbus, of European cross-cultural encounters, and of military history.
