Full Description
Designed to encourage critical thinking about history, Cobbs/Blum/Walker's "Major Problems in American History, Volume I" 5th Edition, introduces you to primary sources and analytical essays on important topics in U.S. history. The text serves as the primary anthology for the introductory survey course, covering the subject's entire chronological span. Topical coverage includes politics, economics, labor, gender, culture and social trends. The revised edition reflects two new historiographical trends: the emergence of the history of religion as an exceptionally lively field and the internationalization of American history. Chapters include images, songs and poems to give you a better feel for the time period and events under discussion. Key pedagogical elements of the text have been retained, including chapter introductions, headnotes and suggested readings.
