Publisher's Synopsis
The Western Hemisphere, spanning from the Americas to Eastern Europe, consists of many cultures, some of which have attempted to claim dominance at various points in history. The history of the Western Hemisphere is, thus, also a history of colonialism and imperialism. In this book, readers will examine the history of these cultures and their relationships from the dawn of modern history until today through project-based learning. Students can model their own exit projects on those provided, while vivid photographs and revealing sidebars enhance their learning of the material.
