“Excellent.”—Booklist

The definitive primary source collection for schools


Textbooks may interpret history, but these books are history. Each title, compiled and
edited by a prominent historian, is a collection of primary sources relating to a particular
topic of historical significance. Documentary evidence-news articles, government
documents, advertisements, memoirs, letters, diaries, fiction, photographs, posters, and
political cartoons-allows history to speak for itself and turns every reader into a historian.
