Hallmark Features
- Each chapter begins with an "American Community" feature that shows how the events discussed in the chapter affected particular communities for a well-rounded understanding of American history.
- "Seeing History" images and critical thinking questions help students use visual culture to make sense of the past.
- "Communities in Conflict" sections allow students to discuss how Americans have struggled to resolve their differences by highlighting primary sources that offer opposing voices on controversial historical issues.
- Read, View, See, Watch, Hear, Study and Review Icons integrated in the text connect resources on MyHistoryLab to specific topics within the chapters. The icons are not exhaustive; many more resources are available than those highlighted in the book, but the icons draw attention to some of the most high-interest resources available on MyHistoryLab.
- At the end of each chapter, a new section, MyHistoryLab Connections, provides a list of the references within the chapter and additional documents, maps, videos or additional resources that relate to the content of the chapter.
