Críticas:

"An exceptionally engaging narrative....Written in a lively style that will surely grab the attention of students, this textbook offers a balanced approach to the American past by concisely blending political, economic, social, and cultural history." -Brad Cartwright, University of Texas at El Paso "The approach the authors have taken makes the course not only easier to teach, but by far more interesting in that it challenges the students to consider different viewpoints and the impact each has on the whole of history." -Daniel Donalson, Houston Community College Southeast "The text accomplishes the difficult task of merging narrative with multiple perspectives, keeping a careful eye on the diversity of American experiences. The writing is engaging, the scholarship is up-to-date, and the overall value of the textbook makes it an excellent choice for U.S. survey courses." -Melanie Perrault, Salisbury University
