American History: Document Based Investigation Workbook (HMH Social Studies Series)
by Houghton Mifflin HarcourtA document-based investigation (DBI) requires you to use a source or a group of sources to produce a written response or some form of presentation. DBIs cannot be answered without a careful analysis of source materials. Unlike a math problem that you can work out in your head, finding the answer to a document-based investigation depends on the use of at least one outside reference. This workbook contains 19 activities. First you will study a collection of source materials and answer short questions about each one, using the writing space provided. The documents and questions will help you develop a response to the essay or presentation topic. In the second part of the activity, you will see a prompt to which you must provide a response. You must base your response on some or all of the source materials. The prompt is called the Task.

American History: We the People
by Mara L. Pratt Reed R. SimonsenThis is the story of the birth of the nation, the signing of the U.S. Constitution, the War of 1812 and the struggles that followed. Volume Two is a photo-reproduction of an original history book used in 1890 to teach our children the grandeur of the America vision. These pages contain the stories of countless men, women and children who bravely built a new land into the great bastion of freedom we enjoy today. This book contains the history that schools leave out. It is unfortunate that many of the stories of patriotism are set aside today for current events and more recent historical interpretations. In the mad rush to offer a little piece of history from each American era, the truly inspirational events of our Founding Fathers are lost.

American Homicide
by Randolph RothIn American Homicide, Randolph Roth charts changes in the character and incidence of homicide in the U.S. from colonial times to the present. Roth argues that the United States is distinctive in its level of violence among unrelated adults—friends, acquaintances, and strangers. America was extraordinarily homicidal in the mid-seventeenth century, but it became relatively non-homicidal by the mid-eighteenth century, even in the slave South; and by the early nineteenth century, rates in the North and the mountain South were extremely low. But the homicide rate rose substantially among unrelated adults in the slave South after the American Revolution; and it skyrocketed across the United States from the late 1840s through the mid-1870s, while rates in most other Western nations held steady or fell. That surge—and all subsequent increases in the homicide rate—correlated closely with four distinct phenomena: political instability; a loss of government legitimacy; a loss of fellow-feeling among members of society caused by racial, religious, or political antagonism; and a loss of faith in the social hierarchy. Those four factors, Roth argues, best explain why homicide rates have gone up and down in the United States and in other Western nations over the past four centuries, and why the United States is today the most homicidal affluent nation.
American Honor: The Creation of the Nation's Ideals during the Revolutionary Era
by Craig Bruce SmithThe American Revolution was not only a revolution for liberty and freedom, it was also a revolution of ethics, reshaping what colonial Americans understood as "honor" and "virtue." As Craig Bruce Smith demonstrates, these concepts were crucial aspects of Revolutionary Americans' ideological break from Europe and shared by all ranks of society. Focusing his study primarily on prominent Americans who came of age before and during the Revolution—notably John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington—Smith shows how a colonial ethical transformation caused and became inseparable from the American Revolution, creating an ethical ideology that still remains.By also interweaving individuals and groups that have historically been excluded from the discussion of honor—such as female thinkers, women patriots, slaves, and free African Americans—Smith makes a broad and significant argument about how the Revolutionary era witnessed a fundamental shift in ethical ideas. This thoughtful work sheds new light on a forgotten cause of the Revolution and on the ideological foundation of the United States.
