U.S. History Skillbook, 4th Edition

by Michael Henry

Overview

Skillbook builds strong writing and thinking skills by breaking the Disciplinary Practices and Reasoning Skills of the AP* U.S. History course into 37 clear, concise, unintimidating lessons, each with guided and independent exercises. The topics of the chapters build from simple to more advanced, while the content of the chapters (examples and exercise topics) is arranged chronologically to align to the 9 Historical Time Periods of the latest APUSH curriculum outline. Skillbook includes a wide array of primary and secondary sources, both textual and visual, along with tools for analyzing sources of all types---maps, graphs, photos, illustrations, cartoons, letters, data tables, and more. Skillbook also covers the ins-and-outs of short-answer questions, and includes thorough course and exam guides, worksheets, period summaries, and detailed answers and explanations.
