The American Journey: A History of the United States traces the geographical, ideological, political and social journeys that make up the American experience. Harnessing the stories of individuals from different eras, the authors present a clear, compelling narrative that makes American history accessible.

The 8th Edition continues to show that our attempt to live up to our American ideals is an ongoing journey that has become increasingly more inclusive of different groups and ideas. The rich visual program has been enhanced to be more interesting and informative. Photographs and pieces of fine art encapsulate emotional and historical meaning. Captions provide valuable information that allows for a fuller understanding of the people who lived the American journey.
