Used for a history class, this book contained wonderful information, ideas from many cultures and demographics and was an all-around great book for expanding understanding and tolerance. Glad I took the time to read it.

It was good, but I often disliked the wording. Also, it did not have the best organization. Bolding of key words and inclusion of a glossary would have been nice. It was often easier to google my homework questions than trying to find them in here. Read the colonial era chapters for leisure reading before the course started

Two stars makes it look like I didn't like the book much but it was pretty good for a history book except it could be a whole lot more concise. I had difficulty getting through several chapters but it did explain in a pretty fair manner both sides to the story of the settling of America, The Revolutionary War, Slavery, life for the poor and the rich, economic, political and other issues, The Civil War, and Reconstruction. I do give credit to the book not telling me how to feel about different issues in order to be politically correct. Covers a very large part of history so of course it couldn't get in too much detail but any specific event but gave the highlights necessary to have a grasp of the issues and norms of the period of time covered.

One of my AP US History textbooks.

Oh, Norton. How I love thee.
