Description

This book chronicles the expansion and consolidation of America from the age of unclaimed territories to the Civil War and the eventual end of the permanent frontier. You’ll find a range of maps, timelines, and concise notes covering the migration and settlement of the American West as well as a thoughtful analysis of how this caused conflicts with Native American tribes and their way of life on the Plains. There is also a detailed breakdown of the Union and Confederacy ideologies and the causes and consequences of emancipation and the abolition of slavery. In addition, there is an overview of life for homesteaders, ranchers, and cowboys during the development of the West along with the challenges they faced dealing with lawlessness and economic hardships.

Designed to comprehensively cover every key point for all applicable exam board specifications, these History notes break down the chronology, causality, and consequences of the relevant historical period, condensing the material to make it easier to understand and revise.

  • Concise, comprehensive coverage of each topic
  • Detailed timelines of historical events and profiles of important historical figures
  • Explanation and analysis of themes, people, events, theories, and ideologies
  • Visual layout and colourful diagrams for key concepts
  • Highlighted key terms for quick reference and retention
