Description:

Product Description The best-selling storytelling approach with more support for student success. David Shi’s rich storytelling style fills America’s celebrated narrative with colorful biographical sketches and vivid first-person quotations. The latest edition welcomes more diverse voices with new coverage of the Latino/a experience as well as on-going enhanced coverage of women and gender, African American, Native American, immigration, and LGBTQ history. The Essential Learning Edition surrounds these stories with a framework that guides reading and develops the skills required for analyzing primary and secondary sources. About the Author David Emory Shi is president emeritus at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina. He is the author of several books focusing on American cultural history, including the award-winning The Simple Life: Plain Living and High Thinking in American Culture and Facing Facts: Realism in American Thought and Culture, 1850–1920, and the best-selling survey texts America: A Narrative History, Full and Brief (now in their Twelfth Editions) and America: Essential Learning Edition (now in its Third Edition). He remains highly engaged with students and instructors around the country with his many annual “author-in-residence” visits to campuses.
