After nearly a year of reading this textbook, I feel very qualified to give my opinion.I read this for AP US History. It's actually the first textbook I have read cover to cover, and it is a very long one at that. I'm going to divide this review into what I liked about it, and what I absolutely detested.Positive:It has abundant resources. I appreciated the Appendix possibly more than the text.

It's actually the first textbook I have read cover to cover, and it is a very long one at that. I'm going to divide this review into what I liked about it, and what I absolutely detested.Positive:It has abundant resources.

I appreciated the Appendix possibly more than the text. Good information about presidents, supreme court justices, the Constitution, The Declaration of Independence, etc. These were really helpful resources. Also, the index was helpful in the beginning before I realized the internet was a far better resource for looking up details. With regard to the chapters, I appreciated the organization. It was pretty consistent, and that made it easy to know where I was at and what I could expect with each topic.

The information was usually consistent with what I was learning in class, and it helped by adding a narrative to all the details that are necessary to know in this course.Negative:It is so long. Does it need to be that long? It really doesn't.

There were some incredibly random details, feature essays, law and society articles, etc. That were completely unnecessary to understand or explain in further detail than a few sentences, but no.

That would be too easy. You really had to dig to find the details, and I would not have made it through the textbook if not for my trusty pencil. There's also an absurd lack of digital documentation, and the text to photo ratio stinks. That being said, this is a textbook, so that's to be expected.

The bias on certain topics was also really frustrating, which made it difficult to just read straight history.In conclusion, I would only recommend the textbook reading to APUSH students, or those who really want a comprehensive detailed overview of general US History. I do not think it is a good study resource, and I do not think that most high school students will find it helpful unless they are very visual and literary people. Oh, America Past and Present, my old frenemy. I remember all those nights I spent with you: stressing and worrying and waking up with highlighter on my face. I remember waking up after three hours of sleep feeling gross because I hadn't showered the night before and red eyes because I slept in my contacts. Sometimes I liked you when I went to study group and we quizzed each other over coffee.

You were even useful when I wanted to kill the fly on my ceiling.Still, I am glad to be done with you. Oh, America Past and Present, my old frenemy.

I actually sleep at night now without a crank in my neck from sleeping on a textbook. I shower every day, and I have free time on the weekends. I don't have to freak out over anything AP, just getting into college (which I have already). Overall, I don't miss you, America Past and Present.

I don't think anyone ever misses you. I do wish I could get someone to buy you off me though. That would be nice. This is for BYU History 220- (American History to 1877).- Whew, got it done!

This books reads very smoothly and I looked forward to reading the chapters. So, as far as my textbooks have gone, this one was better than most of the others.I felt they gave an unbiased view of the events leading up to and during the civil war in regards to the south. The only complaint I have was that it was very heavy handed on the women's rights-not so unbiased. They were heavy handed on 'The Cult of This is for BYU History 220- (American History to 1877).- Whew, got it done! This books reads very smoothly and I looked forward to reading the chapters.

They were heavy handed on 'The Cult of Domesticity,' and how women were forced to endure servitude by bearing endless children and being forced into marriage with horrible men. Blah, blah, blah.

They also talked in detail about every presidential election and each president. I learned a whole lot of interesting things!!!My book was not a combined edition. It was volume one-'American History up to 1877.' I'm sure I'll be reading volume two for my next class 'American History from 1877 to Present.'
