In this third book in Edward Eggleston?s history series you?ll find solid American history in a thorough handbook of American history up to 1888, containing information every child and adult should know about our American heritage.
In order to pass a CLEP test, I read this book. I found it refreshingly not politically correct. It is also everything one needs to pass that exam. Interesting that it was meant for younger school students over 100 years ago and that it may now be used for college level placement. It is very useful for elementary school teaching of U.S. History. Loved it! (and I passed the test)
Published in 1888, you "won't fine political correctness or revisionism here--just solid American history." (From back cover.) Very enjoyable. I needed a simple overview, the big picture.
