Review Quotes: "Of the People includes strong scholarship, written in a style that is unhurried and balanced. The features in each chapter that delve more deeply into particular aspects of that era allow the students to dig in a little more, and there are good visuals to support the text in terms of maps, figures, and tables. Of the People is a really solid text and covers a lot of information without being too unwieldy."--Jennifer Lawrence, Tarrant County College

"The writing style is smooth, consistent, and flows well. The 'Struggles for Democracy' features are really well executed--they often open up some wonderful insights that are extensively developed in a way that is often not possible in textbooks."--Michael Holm, Boston University

"The text effectively weaves diverse voices to convey the complicated and contentious sweep of U.S. history, and its strengths include a thorough treatment of national politics, an innovative use of place and memory, and a highly readable, engaging style."--Ian Hartman, University of Alaska, Anchorage

"Of the People is affordable and easy to use for many types of learners. The writing is clear and accessible."--Ana Fodor, Danville Community College
