About this book

You may not think that a history book could make you laugh, but Kennedy/O'Mara's THE AMERICAN PAGEANT, 18th Edition, just might. It's known for being one of the most popular, effective and entertaining texts on American history. Colorful anecdotes, first-person quotations and the authors' trademark wit bring history to life. Learning aids make the book as accessible as it is enjoyable. Part openers and chapter-ending chronologies provide a context for the major periods in American history, while primary sources and introductions to key historical figures give you a front row seat to the nation's past and place today's debates in historical context.
