American Journey, The, Concise Edition, Volume 2

The American Journey, a cornerstone series for the U.S. History market, successfully blends the coverage of political and social histories of our great nation throughout the series. With this focus, the authors show that our attempt to live up to our American ideals is an ongoing journey. This journey, while still a work in progress, is increasingly more inclusive of different groups and ideas. The Concise Edition offers a trade-like full color narrative format at an economy price for today’s price conscious students.
