For students studying history, preparing for exams, writing papers and otherwise engaged in class work, these concise, 'essential' study guides provide just the right amount of information; the brief explanations aren't tedious reading, yet neither do they provide too little information to be of use. Short chapters with sub-headings explore the political,social, cultural, economic and philosophical issues and developments that have made an important impact on history--exactly what the time-pressed student needs. United States History 1500-1789 covers the Age of Exploration, Colonization, the Enlightenment and the Great Awakening, the French and Indian War, the Intolerable Acts, the Revolutionary War, the United States Constitution and more. 96 pages, softcover.
