Limited Bounty: The United States since World War II

Limited Bounty: The United States since World War II Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A narrative, built around the public life of the American people, this core text is designed for courses in modern US History, or the history of American since 1945. This text will be the most concise for this area of the market. Its goal is to help students understand the present by exploring issues of the past. Graham incorporates the themes of population, resources and environment throughout the text. The dimensions of our current dilemmas in these areas are not cursorily introduced in the 1990s, as in most texts, instead, their development is traced through the entire story of American since World War II.
