Críticas:

"The writing style is very approachable, and should have broad appeal across college campuses."
--Gregory Culver, Austin Peay State University

"This textbook is just challenging enough for our community college students and easily adaptable to fully engage our more gifted students in critical thought. The clear balance of materials enables me to fully incorporate the full range of pedagogical approaches (V.A.R.K. methodology). I highly recommend this book."
--Gary Donato, Massachusetts Bay Community College

"The best new approach I have seen in a U.S. history survey textbook in some time."
--Donald R. Shaffer, American Public University System
?
"This book does what we have been trying to do in the classroom for years and does it in a way that will make you want to actually use the textbook instead of just asking students to read it."
--Uzoamaka Anyiwo, Curry College
?
"Students tell me this book has helped make history real for them."
--Lacey Holley-McCann, Columbia State University

"LaunchPad's integration of book and online assignments is strong. Its LearningCurve application allows students to immediately test their retention of the material and link back to the specific text if they are unsure, and it provides a means for instructors to monitor the reading and retention of students throughout the course."
--Gabrielle Everett, Jefferson College
