Both celebrated figures and ordinary people, from Frederick Douglass to mill workers, demonstrate the diversity of America's history while putting a human face on historical experience. A wealth of speeches, petitions, advertisements, and posters paint a vivid picture of the social and political life of the time, providing depth and breadth to the textbook discussion. Brief introductions set each document in context, while questions for analysis help link the individual source to larger historical themes.Henretta, James A. is the author of 'Documents to Accompany America's History 6e + Vol 2 ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780312454418 and ISBN 0312454414.
