Publisher's Synopsis
"The American Promise: A Concise History is" a brief, inexpensive narrative with a political, chronological narrative that makes teaching and learning American history a snap. Streamlined by the authors themselves to create a truly concise book, the fifth edition is nearly 15 percent shorter than the fourth compact edition, yet it includes more primary sources than ever--including a new visual sources feature. It is also enhanced by easy-to-assign adaptive quizzing that will ensure students come to class prepared.
