Review:

"Finally there's a comprehensive compendium of more than 2,000 primary source documents on U.S. history and culture, organized chronologically, and more attractive to read than Annals of America. This is a purchase with long-lasting value. It was popular with students and teachers as soon as it hit the shelves."
--Pennsylvania School Librarians Associations, May 2006
