Publisher Description
This book is the third in Edward Eggleston's history textbook series. You will not find political correctness or revisionism herejust solid American history. And more than that, this book makes the teacher's job easy, while it stimulates the student's interest. To do this, this book is arranged by topic so the student sees cause and effect clearly and contains study questons, a Study by Topic section, fill-in exercises, many maps and illustrations, suggestions to teachers and a useful, comprehensive index.
Eggleston's technique allows teachers and parents to teach history with proficiency and allows students to savor and comprehend the facts and lessons of America's history.
Recommended for Ages 12 and up.
Reader Reviews
This, the third book in Edward Eggelston's textbook series, is a remarkable example of how textbooks ought to be, and once were, written. From the first page to the last, Eggleston's clarity and obvious love for the subject infused me with the desire to push on, thus learning what was to happen next. The bite-sized chapters (which are about four pages of text each) ensured that this desire did not wane out of a failure to mentally digest a ton of facts all at once. And, to top it all off, the pictures and maps inside this book actually added to (rather than distracted me from) its content. As a current student, I can only tell you that I would love for one of my teachers to have used, or to use, a textbook like this for one of my classes. It contains nothing but solid American history and is a textbook that is at once both readable and immensely worth reading. I'm giving it five out of five stars.
