This latest addition to the Histories of the Modern Nations series explores the complex and contested history of the United States from the nation's precolonial origins to the present day.Supported by contemporary historiography and an array of primary sources, this book examines how Americans from varied backgrounds and perspectives, from indigenous peoples, to African Americans, women, workers, and immigrants, have struggled to broaden the definition of “We the People” and extend freedom and opportunity to all Americans. From before the time of Christopher Columbus to the presidencies of Joseph R. Biden and Donald Trump, the author introduces readers to the people, events, and ideas that have for more than two centuries shaped the story of the United States both at home and abroad."
