Designed to give students an up-close and personal view of history; American History First Hand: Working with Primary Sources offers students the opportunity to experience written documents; visual materials; material culture artifacts; and maps–the materials historians actually work with to decipher the past. Completely unique in this market; American History First Hand: Working with Primary Sources is innovative and exciting; allowing students to learn first-hand what history is and what historians actually do. In each volume there are 12 archives; and each archive contains loose facsimiles for students to explore. In addition to the documents; students will also obtain a four-page introduction that describes the issues and themes of the folders. Pedagogical materials will help them explore the ramifications of these sources; as they practice the art of historical analysis.
