This edition of a text for a US survey course, written for undergraduates with little or no background in American history, includes the full text of the regular third edition in a compact format. Coverage encompasses political, social, cultural, and economic history from the European exploration through the 21st century. The text's central theme is the social conditions that make freedom possible and the boundaries that determine who is entitled to enjoy freedom and who is not. This third edition places American history more fully in a global context, from the rise and fall of slavery through the American response to popular uprisings around the world, a comparison of frontier settlement in different countries, and the globalization of the economy. The text is illustrated with b&w historical photos and illustrations and two-color maps in a two-color layout. For visual learners, this third edition includes references to web sites that contain digital images; the text's companion web site offers video podcasts, historical video and audio files, primary source documents, and US history tours powered by Google Earth. Foner teaches history at Columbia University. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
