NEW COVERAGE OF ISSUES OF INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION ACROSS AMERICAN HISTORY
Who is an American, who is not and what does it mean to be American? This is a front-burner issue now but it has been a key question throughout all of American history. The Sixth Edition includes new coverage of inclusion and exclusion as it has played out in American law and institutions, political and social movements, family and individual aspirations, and race, gender and ethnicity. This new coverage is woven throughout the text and highlighted in new “Who is an American?” primary source document features and author videos.
AN INTERACTIVE INTRODUCTION TO EFFECTIVE READING AND HISTORICAL THINKING
New and updated digital resources help students develop critical reading and analytical history skills while enhancing the reading experience. InQuizitive—Norton’s award-winning adaptive learning tool—features 20% new and revised questions, and the History Skills Tutorials features a new module on secondary sources. Both InQuizitive and the Tutorials ensure that students come to class prepared with a strong understanding of the reading.
AN AUTHORITATIVE, ACCESSIBLE, CONCISE AND INTEGRATED SYNTHESIS OF AMERICAN HISTORY
