Description: Now published by Oxford University Press, Constructing the American Past: A Source Book of a People's History, Eighth Edition, presents an innovative combination of case studies and primary source documents that allow students to discover, analyze, and construct history from the actors' perspective.

Review Quotes: "Constructing the American Past lets students be historians, delve deeply into a single issue, and come to some conclusions of their own. Professors who want to show their students what it's like to be a historian will love it."--Cindy Hahamovitch, University of Georgia

"Compared to other sourcebooks on the market, Constructing the American Past has a focused chapter approach. Other sourcebooks just offer a chapter-by-chapter collection of sources that are relevant, but mostly unconnected or unfocused. With Constructing the American Past, students are led into problem-solving, which is the essence of history."--Louis Haas, Middle Tennessee State University
