Nicely Organized, Historically Accurate, PERFECT for CSET Study!
This book was phenomenal in helping me to study for my Multiple Subjects CSET test; I passed with flying colors on my first attempt--using primarily this book for the CA and US history portions of the sub-tests. The book is organized in an easy-to-understand format that allows you to easily navigate the different time periods in our country's history.
