description: This is Volume I (to 1877) of AMERICAN PASSAGES, SECOND EDITION that examines U.S. history the way people live--in the flow of time. Rather than pursuing one topic (such as politics, culture, society, reform, the military, or economics) at a time, each chapter of the text interweaves important themes and issues into one interrelated narrative. Through this method of presentation, students can observe the many ways that events, movements, and groups of people have served to shape history and can learn to make connections between these themes and issues. References to the book's fully integrated Web site allow students to experience history from the vantage of those who lived it. AMERICAN A HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, SECOND EDITION is available in the following split American Passages, Comprehensive, Second Edition (Chapters 1?32) 0534607411; American Passages, Volume To 1877, Second Edition (Chapters 1?16) 053460742X; American Passages, Volume Since 1863, Second Edition (Chapters 15?32) 0534607438.
