Ebook: A Companion to 19th-Century America

THIS volume invites a general audience, as well as scholars and students, to share in
recent and continuing historical debates that have deepened and complicated our
understanding of the nineteenth-century United States. This was the century that
marked the transition of the United States from its roots in the struggling, overwhelmingly
agrarian, and Atlantic-centered republic of the revolutionary era to its
emergence as a major industrial and world power by 1900.
