About this product

Product Information

A highly respected, balanced, and thoroughly modern approach to US History, LIBERTY, EQUALITY, POWER, uses these three themes in a unique approach to show how the United States was transformed, in a relatively short time, from a land inhabited by hunter-gatherer and agricultural Native American societies into the most powerful industrial nation on earth. This approach helps students understand not only the impact of the notions of liberty and equality, which are often associated with the American story, but also how dominant and subordinate groups have affected and been affected by the ever-shifting balance of power. The text integrates the best of recent social and cultural scholarship into a political story, offering students the most comprehensive and complete understanding of American history available. LIBERTY, EQUALITY, POWER is available in the following volume splits: Comprehensive (Chapters 1-32): 0-495-10540-6; Volume I: to 1877 (Chapters 1-17): 0-495-11606-8; Volume II: Since 1863 (Chapters 17-32): 0-495-11607-6.

  • Liberty, Equality, Power History Textbook

    The textbook Liberty, Equality, and Power is a very well organized textbook with good examples making the history easy to understand the significant impact it has on todays current day events. The textbook is big and covers history through current day. The last chapters in the book go even past the 9/11 day and talk about different aspects of our countries government today. The book is definitely very modern and up to date. The books chapters are my only complaint, I just feel as if they are to long and they get boring after 20 to 30 pages of reading it. There are usefully graphs and photographs to illustrate events in history that were going on during this time period. This is definitely a comprehensive textbook and hopefully your professor will have a good lecture to go along with ...
