The course of daily life in the United States has been a product of tradition, environment, and circumstance. How did the Civil War alter the lives of women, both white and black, left alone on southern farms? How did the Great Depression change the lives of working class families in eastern cities? How did the dicovery of gold in California transform the lives of native American, Hispanic, and white communities in western territories? <p>Organized by time period as spelled out in the National Standards for U.S. History, these four volumes effectively analyze the diverse whole of American experience, examining the domestic, economic, intellectual, material, political, recreational, and religious life of the American people between 1763 and 2005. The four volumes cover the following periods:The War of Independence and Antebellum Expansion and Reform, 1763-1861; The Civil War, Reconstruction, and the Industrialization of America, 1861-1900; The Emergence of Modern America, World War I, and the Great Depression, 1900-1940; and Wartime, Postwar, and Contemporary America, 1940-Present. Each volume includes a selection of primary documents, a timeline of important events during the period, images illustrating the text, and extensive bibliography of further information resources -- both print and electronic -- and a detailed subject index.
