About your course materials
THE ENDURING VISION's engaging narrative integrates political, social, and cultural history within a chronological framework. Known for its focus on the environment and the land, Boyer, et al's text is also praised for its innovative coverage of cultural history, public health and medicine, and the West -- including Native American history. The ninth edition maintains these strengths while enhancing coverage of women's history and incorporating new scholarship. A thoroughly redesigned last chapter discusses topics such as income inequality and mass incarceration, while bringing the discussion up to date with coverage of the 2016 presidential campaign. The ninth edition also incorporates new features that support learning. Each section begins with a historical question; new conclusions include summaries organized around each of the chapter questions. Available in the following split options: THE ENDURING VISION, 9th Edition Complete, Volume 1: To 1877, and Volume 2: Since 1865.

"Going to the Source" is a one-page excerpt of a primary source, highlighting issues related to the environment and the land. These features appear throughout each chapter with analysis questions to engage students in thinking critically about the excerpt's content. A rich selection of primary documents from speeches, diaries, and other writings are included.
"Beyond America -- Global Interactions" chapter reflection activities, available in MindTap®, explore the worldwide context of key developments in American history, including the Panic of 1837, slavery as a global institution, decolonization and the Cold War, and the Black Freedom Movement.
"Technology and Culture" chapter reflection activities, available in MindTap®, demonstrate the importance of these two forces in American history. Topics include public sanitation in Philadelphia, guns and gun culture, flush toilets, and the interstate highway system.
A supportive in-text pedagogical program is designed to help students grasp each chapter's structure and purpose: Introductions prepare students for broad developments, themes, and historical problems; outlines provide a wireframe of key topics; focus questions help students read actively rather than passively; chronologies provide an overview of key events; and the chapter review, The Whole Vision, sums up the core themes and answers the focus questions, providing students with an opportunity to solidify their understanding of what they've read.
