The Story of American Freedom
Eric Foner

W. W. Norton & Company, 1999

American history as it should be told.
The author has chosen a topic - "freedom" - that has been prominent in discourse both public (political) and private (personal lives). In short, the topic - however variously defined, in specific historical contexts - is vital to our public and private lives. He ...
  
  











  



  
Give Me Liberty!: An American History, Seagull Edition, Volume 1
Eric Foner

W. W. Norton, 2005

I didn't know that reading this book would change how I live my life
This was required for college and read several chapters before dropping the class because of an inferior professor, while there maybe several stories and versions of what happened in American History, the one thing that has changed my life from reading this book is ...

Give Me Liberty!: An American History, Seagull Edition, Volume 2
Eric Foner

W. W. Norton, 2005

Excellent way to learn American History.
I am a foreign student, and this is the first time that I study American History. The Seagull Edition of this book is great because it has all the written information and appendix from the regular volume and it costed less than half. Some people might miss the colored ...

A Short History of Reconstruction
Eric Foner

Harper Perennial, 1990

One of the most influential books in American History!
Eric Foner's "Short History" of Reconstruction has radically changed how the period is taught at the high school and university levels. Before Foner, the majority of texts treated the Reconstruction as a period of corruption and revenge against the south. (See for ...
  
  











  



  
Our Lincoln: New Perspectives on Lincoln and His World

W. W. Norton, 2008

"New" perspectives?
As we approach the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth, I suppose we can expect the already busy Lincoln book industry to go into hyperdrive. That necessarily means that a lot of stuff will get recycled and called "new." For the most part, this is what's happened with ...
  
  











  



  
Reconstruction: America's Unfinished Revolution, 1863-1877
Eric Foner

Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2002

Where Did You Go Mr. Thaddeus Stevens...
I finished this book this weekend. It took me the better part of the summer to get through the 600+ pages of text. This is not an easy read, in many cases it was downright depressing. Oftentimes, I stopped because I just couldn't read anymore. There was only so ...

Give Me Liberty!, Second Edition, Volume 1 (Give Me Liberty)
Eric Foner

W. W. Norton, 2007

Easy to read, but some errors
This textbook was helpful for my college class, and it was easy to read. However, there were some historical dates that were not accurate. If you buy it used, it is a good buy for the price.
  
  











  



  
The Reader's Companion to American History

Houghton Mifflin, 1991

Just What I'd Been Looking For
The Reader's Companion to American History doesn't over-explain. Instead, it provides just enough information to help contextualize a period novel or, in my case, Constitutional law material, quickly. Without this book, I would have been forced to consult any number ...
  
  











  



  
Forever Free: The Story of Emancipation and Reconstruction
Eric Foner

Vintage, 2006

AN EYE OPENER!!!!
As a Civil War Buff, I never read very much about Reconstruction, unless it was an appendage to a book about the Civil War or the years following th Civil War. However, this book opened my eyes to the true facts of the Reconstruction - in painstaking detail and with ...
  
  











  



  
Give Me Liberty!: An American History, One-Volume Edition
Eric Foner

W. W. Norton & Company, 2004

Outstanding college text
This text is indeed used for college history classes and is usually assigned in US survey classes that cover the colonial period to the present day. The amount and depth of material in the text is quite exceptional. The book includes chapter review pages, suggested ...
  
  











  



  
New American History Pb Rvsd (Critical Perspectives On The P)
American Historical Association, Eric Foner

Temple University Press, 1997

The current state of Historical Scholarship
This is really an invaluable book for history scolars as it lays out the "current state" of U.S. history in a multitude of topics. Admittedly, I went to a left leaning University a few years ago but almost all of my classes came almost straight from the essays in this ...
