Give Me Liberty 2e Seagull Edition by Eric Foner

Concise, clear, compact, Eric Foner's brilliant synthesis of American history is the perfect teaching tool. Unlike so many textbooks that overwhelm beginning students with encyclopedic detail, "Give Me Liberty!" presents the events of American history in a nimble chronological narrative that equips students to understand their significance. It is a textbook that works.
