[in a letter to the authors] ". . . I would just like to say the subtle humor found occasionally in the book is awesome. It's like I've found a little nugget of gold. Thank you and your colleagues for a textbook that succeeds in keeping me awake while reading it--quite an accomplishment for a history textbook.", I think THE AMERICAN PAGEANT is easy to read and comprehend. The vocabulary is at an appropriate level, the material, for the most part, is presented in a nicely flowing narrative, and it is lucid., 1. New World Beginnings 33,000 B.C.E.-1769 C.E.2. The Planting of English America 1500-1733.3. Settling the Northern Colonies 1619-1700.4. American Life in the Seventeenth Century 1607-1692.5. Colonial Society on the Eve of Revolution 1700-1775.6. The Duel for North America 1608-1763.7. The Road to Revolution 1763-1775.8. America Secedes from the Empire 1775-1783.9. The Confederation and the Constitution 1776-1790.10. Launching the New Ship of State 1789-1800.11. The Triumphs and Travails of the Jeffersonian Republic 1800-1812.12. The Second War for Independence and the Upsurge of Nationalism 1812-1824.13. The Rise of a Mass Democracy 1824-1840.14. Forging the National Economy 1790-1860.15. The Ferment of Reform and Culture 1790-1860.16. The South and the Slavery Controversy 1793-1860.17. Manifest Destiny and Its Legacy 1841-1848.18. Renewing the Sectional Struggle 1848-1854.19. Drifting Toward Disunion 1854-1861.20. Girding for War: The North and the South 1861-1865.21. The Furnace of Civil War 1861-1865.22. The Ordeal of Reconstruction 1865-1877.23. Political Paralysis in the Gilded Age 1869-1896.24. Industry Comes of Age 1865-1900.25. America Moves to the City 1865-1900.26. The Great West and the Agricultural Revolution 1865-1896.27. Empire and Expansion 1890-1909.28. Progressivism and the Republican Roosevelt 1901-1912.29. Wilsonian Progressivism at Home and Abroad 1912-1916.30. The War to End War 1917-1918.31. American Life in the "Roaring Twenties" 1919-1929.32. The Politics of Boom and Bust 1920-1932.33. The Great Depression and the New Deal 1933-1939.34. Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Shadow of War 1933-1941.35. America in World War II 1941-1945.36. The Cold War Begins 1945-1952.37. The Eisenhower Era 1952-1960.38. The Stormy Sixties 1960-1968.39. The Stalemated Seventies 1968-1980.40. The Resurgence of Conservatism 1980-1992.41. America Confronts the Post-Cold War Era 1992-2011.42. The American People Face a New Century., I like the connection between a historical event and how it affects the future. i.e., it mentions early seeds of civil rights movement to later more militant movement., [What I like best about THE AMERICAN PAGEANT is the] rich, flowing narrative in every chapter that will draw the student to the material . . . and, mysteriously to them, enlighten, educate, entertain and painlessly expose them to all the themes, issues, trends and personalities in U.S. history. Most textbooks are so huge, detailed with a maze of tables, charts, graphs that overwhelm if not frighten students. . . . Kennedy is the best written, brief or otherwise text I've seen/read, and I've read/studied most of the Top 20 college US history textbooks. . . ., . . . What I loved most about this book when I read it 20 years ago . . . were the political cartoons. These are fantastic because they really show the reader something tangible to latch on to in an amusing or thought provoking way. . . . The text is written in a straightforward way that students can understand.

AOK. Item as described, reasonable condition (as described), excellent price, reasonable packing and shipping time, no problems. Thanks. (Sorry, I don't do star ratings when some are automatic, as it's unfair to buyers to have eBay pre-empt any of the scores. You should complain to eBay, as your star ratings would have been very high.) I can't rate the product until I read it. It's unfair for eBay to require a product rating in order to send feedback! The guys at eBay are heavily into control.
