President Franklin Roosevelt told Americans in a 1936 fireside chat, "I
do not look upon these United States as a finished product. We are still
in the making." These United States builds on this foundation to present
a readable, accessible history of the United States throughout the
twentieth century--an ongoing and inspiring story of great leaders and
everyday citizens marching, fighting, voting, and legislating to make
the nation's promise of democracy a reality for all Americans.
In the college edition of These United States, Gilmore and Sugrue
seamlessly weave insightful analysis with all of the support tools
needed by students and instructors alike, including paired primary
source documents, review questions, key terms, maps, and figures in a
dynamic four-color design.
