Synopsis:
"America" is one of the most successful American history textbooks ever published. Maintaining the features that have always distinguished this classic textbook - lively and accessible narrative style, a keen balance of the political with social and cultural history, and exceptional value - the seventh edition introduces a completely redesigned, full-colour layout complemented by eye-catching maps and enhanced pedagogy. The seventh edition also introduces the new theme of environmental history. Carefully integrated throughout, this theme adds illuminating perspectives on how Americans have shaped-and been shaped by-the natural world.
About the Author: George Brown Tindall spent many years on the faculty of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He was an award-winning historian of the South with a number of major books to his credit, including The Emergence of the New South. David Emory Shi is a professor of history and the president emeritus of Furman University. He is the author of several books on American cultural history, including the award-winning The Simple Life: Plain Living and High Thinking in American Culture and Facing Facts: Realism in American Thought and Culture, 1850-1920.
