Designed to encourage critical thinking about history; the Major Problems in American History series introduces students to both primary sources and analytical essays on important topics in U.S. history. This text serves as the primary anthology; even the textbook; for the course; covering the subject's entire chronological span. With nearly 50% new documents; the Second Edition places greater emphasis on diplomacy and foreign affairs; popular culture; religion; and the history of national and group identities. Documents in each chapter identify key issues and capture the passionate spirit and conviction of the historical actors. The essay selections highlight classic and current scholarship on the social and cultural history of the early republic.

To know another person; sit at his tableBy Irene FissWhen the Jewish people left their original homeland and moved to new locations all over the world; they incorporated new spices; new vegetables and new ways of preparing dishes. However; whatever the food tneirparents served when they were young chidden left aan indelible mark; a sense memory that many held onto as they faced harsh times and the uncertainty of survival.hooray for June Hersh's attempt to reach out to people to help them to reflectnon those early food memories. This bok is a unique contribution to understanding a people and their culture.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Recipes Bring History AliveBy Dana MartinThis work is pure genius!
