New sources focus on themes that carry across historical time periods – from historical responses to inequality and migration through conceptions of geography and community to the memory and memorialization of the past – and help students connect their experiences to the ideas and debates of history.
New “Sources in Conversation” document pairs encourage students to see how sources can both inform and challenge each other while providing students with deeper opportunities to engage in historical analysis.
Visual sources now included in every chapter broaden students’ understanding of what constitutes the historical record and highlight the range of material available through which to understand the past.
