Description

Written by academic specialists, the fully revised 3rd edition covers all aspects of American history and daily life - sports, diplomacy labour, art, economics, wars, institutions, legends, places, scandals, Acts of Congress, Supreme Court decisions, businesses, organisations, cultural icons, government agencies and much more. Clear and accessible in its language and organization, the Dictionary of American History provides a gateway for researchers venturing into the often-complex terrain of America's past. It includes more than 800 new topics, plus more than 1,400 articles completely rewritten. It also contains, for the first time, illustrations and maps placed near the pertinent articles.
