Maria Montoya | Laura A. Belmonte | Carl J. Guarneri | Ellen Hartigan-O'Connor |
Steven Hackel | Lon Kurashige Americas national experience and collective history
have always been subject to transnational forces and affected by global events and
conditions. In recognition of this reality, GLOBAL AMERICANS presents a
history of North America and then the United States in which world events and
processes are central rather than colorful sidelights. In doing so, the text reflects
the diverse experiences of you -- the students it speaks to -- and your families.
You’ll be immersed in an accessible and inclusive American history in which a
variety of social, cultural, economic, and geographic dynamics play key roles. The
authors want you to see yourselves in the narrative, primary source documents,
images, and other media they have assembled. GLOBAL AMERICANS reveals
the long history of global events that have shaped -- and been shaped by -- the
peoples who have come to constitute the United States.

Review
I was amazed, in fact, at how cleverly and subtly the international connections
were incorporated into the larger narrative, including some, I’m rather chagrined to
admit, I have never thought to include myself. That said, the global theme never
seemed forced, and none of the international material is included just for the sake
of inclusion.
The chapters are interesting and incorporate real people This means that students
are not reading the same stories theyve read for 13 or so years, written by different
people. It makes things more interesting.
