U.S. History is designed to meet the scope and sequence requirements of most introductory courses. The text provides a balanced approach to U.S. history, considering the people, events, and ideas that have shaped the United States from both the top down (politics, economics, diplomacy) and bottom up (eyewitness accounts, lived experience). U.S. History covers key forces that form the American experience, with particular attention to issues of race, class, and gender.

The purpose of this book is "...to supplement the more general academic works.... The first four editions dealt with groups and themes that traditionally had been ignored or slighted in the existing textbooks: American Indians, blacks, women, the working class, East Asian immigrants, poor whites, the elderly, Mexican-Americans, children, female labor; and the incidence of socialism, peace movements, and revivalism, among other topics. The fifth edition extends the subject matter to include female servants and slaves, seamen, republican values, political education, new religious movements, Indian wars, and frontier violence"--Pref.
