"This book is a useful and engaging way to introduce students to
primary sources in history, and to--ultimately--aid our objective
to get them to think like historians, introducing them to the
historian's tool kit." --Derek Kutzer, San Antonio College"A really
well-conceived source reader: The excerpts are about the right
length, the introductory material sets a clear tone for what is to
come, and the selections are as timely now as when they were
originally written." --William Wantland, Mount Vernon Nazarene
University"This sourcebook provides for students an impressive
range of documents while at the same time laying a framework for
students in the survey course to understand how they fit together
within the contours of US History." --Katrina A. Sinclair,
Pennsylvania College of Technology
