American Record Images Of The Nation's Past, To 1877

Using primary and secondary source material and numerous photographs and illustrations, The American Record presents history through a broad perspective. Blending the traditional approach to American history (centered on politics, economics, diplomacy, and war) with the modern approach (including histories of women and children, people of color, and the poor and economically marginal), it offers a version of our national past that is inclusive, complex, and dynamic. Volume 1 covers the span from the European conquest of America through Reconstruction; Volume 2 covers Reconstruction to the present.Graebner, William is the author of 'American Record Images Of The Nation's Past, To 1877', published 2005 under ISBN 9780072949582 and ISBN 0072949589.
