Editorial Reviews: Product Description Known for its clear narrative voice, impeccable scholarship, and affordability, Alan Brinkley?s The Unfinished Nation offers a concise but comprehensive examination of American History. Balancing social and cultural history with traditional political and diplomatic themes, it tells the story of the diversity and complexity of the United States and the forces that have enabled it to survive and flourish despite division. Volume 2 covers 1865 to the present. This fifth edition features six new essays and enhanced coverage of recent events and developments in the continuing American story. .

Customer Reviews: An easy yet informative read October 8, 2008 As far as modern American history texts go, this is one of the easier reads out there without sacrificing perspective. The book reads almost like a novel you've seen the movie adaption of: you already know how the story ends, but in reading the novel you pick up on a lot of the nuances you may have missed when you saw the movie. Most Americans have a basic idea of recent American history, but this book fills in the details and gives good historical context. I was impressed at the breadth of topics covered in the chapters, which for the most part discuss time periods, like "The Great Depression" or "Reconstruction" (this also helps with flow, as the book progresses more or less chronologically). In the chapter on the Depression, for example, the author devotes a few paragraphs to what movies of the time were about, which some may argue is historically unimportant but to the average reader provide great context. My only complaint is that the book, in its efforts to be concise and easily readable, occasionally glosses over events that merit some more description. All in all, though, this is one of the better texts I've used in a college-level class. Great transaction April 17, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful The product came in described condition, arrived quickly, and I am very happy with my new book =)
