Customer Reviews

Great teacher source

As a secondary school social studies teacher I found this book very helpful. There are numerous sources, and each has an informative and interesting introduction. A broad range of sources include everyday people and politicians, cartoons, letters, and speeches. A must have for the social studies classroom!

I read it and took notes on it

I thought this was a wonderful collection of primary sources that really encouraged the further learning of History. Bailey does such a nice job with this book.
