5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book for APUSH
Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2014
Verified Purchase
Pros: Our high school uses this 13th edition for AP US History. It is a solid book for this class! It provides expected content, sometimes with a little opinion interspersed. I find this good at the AP level to facilitate some dialogue in that direction. I would not use it outside of AP US history at the high school level for various reasons, but for AP US history it gets the job done well for students focused on their College Board AP U.S. history exam.

Cons: The main drawback is the utter lack of multimedia and electronic online resources to facilitate its use in a digital age. I have heard their excuse a number of times: this is an AP oriented book, you don't get those sorts of resources for these sorts of books/classes, etc. Frankly, that is a cop out, particularly at the price point of this book. This leads me to the second drawback: its price. A new book goes for $110.00, and the used version goes for anything between $40-80. I think this price could be significantly less given it is a nearly decade or more old rehash of the same book, it is a book used at a high school level, and it provides no supplemental and digital resource options that normal non-AP books provide at cheaper costs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great History Text
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2010
Verified Purchase
I must admit that I'm not much of a history fan, but I found this book to be surprisingly good. The strength of this book is that the text is surprisingly readable. The prose flows well, and the authors often throw in historically unimportant, but nonetheless interesting, tidbits, facts, and (often very subtle) puns that make reading this book less of a chore. These "Baileyisms" drastically improve the reading experience. Instead of highlighting important parts of the text and taking detailed notes (as I would typically do), I opted to sit in a comfortable chair and read the text like I would any good book. The random tidbits and puns helped me remember and recall the information, which saved me hours of studying.

The book covers all the content it needs to in a very organized manner. The chapters are approximately equal (and manageable) in length and they are organized in a way that makes sense.

This book was more than adequate for an AP US History class.

4.0 out of 5 stars The American Pageant: A History of the Republic AP Edition
Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2010
Verified Purchase
I purchased this textbook as used, and was very satisfied with the condition. It was reported to be in good condition with minimal highlights in the book. The book was exactly as it had been advertised and will be put to good use. I certainly appreciate the fact I could buy the book used and not have to pay full price for it. Textbooks are very expensive, especially for students still in high school.

5.0 out of 5 stars American Pageant History Book
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2011
Verified Purchase
This book was in the EXACT condition described by the seller, with a student's name written on the outside edges of the pages, but overall very good condition. The perfect replacement for the text book at school... so it can stay there in perfect condition, and this one can can be at home and have highlight marks placed throughout for study reference. Very well priced, average time for shipping, a good investment for use as a study guide at home for a high school AP history class.

Although I was a little nervous ordering this book because the description of the condition was so vague, it turned out to be in great condition. I am very pleased with my purchase. It was a good value. I saved over $75 by buying used!

The book itself is interesting and appropriate for advanced high school students or college students. It makes a great AP or Dual Credit textbook.

My son's school requires he buys his books so this was bought for a high school Jr AP class. It is the correct book. Got it used. It was much more marked up than advertised.

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2012

For me, history books have always been a neccesary evil. They are over-simplified, wishy-washy, and read with simple, boring prose. Not this one. This one has done the unthinkable. Not only does it clearly show both sides of an issue, but it is shockingly well written. Almost every page or so one can find delightful little phrases that make assigned reading much more bearable. This is truly a gem.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the full book
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2020
Verified Purchase
I had this book back in high school many years back and I loved it so much, I decided to repurchase it for my personal collection. I was disappointed to learn that I got around half of the book. The page says it should have around 1168 pages, my book ends at page 558. Nowhere does it say that this is part 1 out of 2 in my purchase and in the book itself. I feel like I got scammed and I am really disappointed in this purchase.
