America's Nation-Time, 1607-1789 1607-1789

The study of American history has become so complex in recent years that readers now often face a choice between a broad survey simplified to the point of distortion and daunting array of specialized studies. The need remains for a lucid overview of the principal events of each period of the nation's history, together with a balanced interpretation of their significance. Benjamin W. Labaree's America's Nation-Time provides such an overview and interpretation for the colonial period.
