The Unfinished Journey by William H Chafe

The Unfinished Journey by William H Chafe

Brilliantly written by a prize-winning historian, The Unfinished Journey, Eighth Edition, considers both the paradoxes and the possibilities of postwar America. William H. Chafe portrays the significant cultural and political themes that have colored our country's past and present, including issues of race, class, gender, foreign policy, and economic and social reform. He examines such subjects as the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, the origins and the end of the Cold War, the culture of the 1970s, the rise of the New Right, the events of September 11th and their aftermath, and various presidencies.

"The Unfinished Journey has a strong narrative momentum, creating a desire to 'find out what happens next'"--Jeffrey Crane, Sam Houston State University "The Unfinished Journey offers a compelling and comprehensive narrative while also offering an analytical element missing in most textbooks."--Robyn Rosen, Marist College
