This is a complete “History of the United States” from the discovery of America to the present.
The main events and figures are described in a clear and direct text, to which is added, as a further aid to the reader` s understanding, a wide range of illustrations-maps, photographs, political cartoons and drawings-together with historical documents-including political speeches, newspapers articles, and poems.
At the and of each chapter –in the form of a workbook, with no need of additional paper-are a series of exercises designed to help the reader to understand the text and, at the same time, to review English grammar and to increase his vocabulary.
Finally, the appendix contains the United States Constitution and the Declaration of Independence-two documents essential for a real understanding of the United States, its limits and its hopes for the future.
