内容简介：
One of the first U.S. economic history texts on the market, this text presents economic events chronologically for easy understanding, equipping students with a firm foundation in the evolution of American economic history.

Five key themes provide the foundation of the book: 1) economic growth, 2) markets and the role of government, 3) the quest for security, 4) competitiveness and international comparisons, and 5) demographic forces.

The text emphasizes the big picture of historical change, the role of economic forces in prompting change, and the ability of economics to improve our understanding of history.
Featured in each chapter, \"Economic Insights\" boxes give students hands-on practice developing analytical skills using basic economic principles. Reflecting the real-world marketplace in the 1990s and beyond, the text places particular emphasis on the changing role of women in the labour market.

The text offers fresh insight on the role of property rights in creating an efficient market, the political economy and regulation, and recent theories about the causes and consequences of the Great Depression.

Each part opens with a list of major trends, giving students a broad overview of U.S. economic history.
