Description

This is Volume I: To 1877 of "Liberty, Equality, Power, Fourth Edition". "Liberty, Equality, Power" offers students a clear understanding of how America transformed itself, in a relatively short time, from a land inhabited by hunter-gatherer and agricultural Native American societies into the most powerful industrial nation on earth. The authors promote this understanding by telling the story of America through the lens of three major themes: liberty, equality, and power. This approach helps students understand not only the impact of the notions of liberty and equality, which are often associated with the American story, but also how dominant and subordinate groups have affected and been affected by the ever-shifting balance of power. This Fourth Edition retains the narrative clarity, unparalleled coverage, and thematic unity that are the hallmarks of "Liberty, Equality, Power".It updates the text's proven ability to cover social and cultural history with such timely topics as globalization, the impact of science and technology, evolving roles for religion, and expands upon the text's extensively multicultural coverage. Backed by an ancillary package unmatched in this market, "Liberty, Equality, Power" makes its thorough, memorable coverage equally accessible to students and instructors.It's available in the following volume splits: "Liberty, Equality, Power: A History of the American People, Fourth Edition" (Chapters 1-31), ISBN: 0534627307; "Liberty, Equality, Power: A History of the American People", Volume I: To 1877, Fourth Edition (Chapters 1-17), ISBN: 0534627315; and "Liberty, Equality, Power: A History of the American People", Volume II: Since 1863, Fourth Edition (Chapters 17-31), ISBN: 0534627323.
