### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Non-traditional and beautiful.
*by A***N on May 23, 2014*

The inclusion of social and cultural history make this book an examination of U.S. history, from the beginnings up to tomorrow, going beyond and behind presidential elections, political decisions, wars, and constitutional decisions. It will be of use to college students and to general readers who want the "whole story". It would be especially useful to foreign students who have come to study here.
