<p>Hey, I am taking APUSH this year and we are using The American Nation by Carnes and Garraty. What textbook [not review book] does your school use?</p>
<p>Most schools use "The American Pageant"...including mine.</p>
<p>A People and a Nation</p>
<p>"Liberty, Equality, and Power"
Does anyone else use this textbook...?</p>
<p>Pageant and Spirit</p>
<p>The American Pageant by Kennedy, et al. I have heard The American Nation to be a little bit right wing, but that is just what I heard. And really, I like American History by Brinkley since it doesn't dumb the readers down unlike Pageant and really good narrative that makes you want to read on.</p>
<p>And for Liberty Equality, power, Doesn't the subtitle indicate that it is a social history of the United States??? So then it doesn't cover other types of history, right??? (Just asking; I took the AP USH test last year and got a 5.)</p>
<p>We use American History by Brinkley, it's pretty good, a little simplistic and at times and he takes some really random tangents, but I do learn a lot...</p>
