Reviews
"America Divided is a concise and precise textbook on the history of the 1960s. Cogently written and well researched, this new edition continues to be a useful source for courses in U.S. history and the 1960s."--Hettie V. Williams, Monmouth University "This book serves as an excellent foundational text for courses focusing on the 1960s or on the postwar period more generally. The narrative is often engaging, the prose clear, and the explanations thorough."--Chris O'Brien, University of Maine at Farmington "America Divided is a solid, well-written survey that assesses the key developments of the 1960s without losing sight of ordinary Americans."--William Michael Schmidli, Bucknell University
