Gr 4-8 Large, well-chosen black-and-white and color photos are the strongest elements of these books, which each offer approximately 20 chapters covering economics, politics, wars, science, and popular culture. The focus is on U.S. history, but world events that influenced America are also discussed. Captions provide specific information about the photos and supplement, rather than repeat, information in the narratives. Attractive and readable, this series will be popular with browsers and beginning researchers.

Vignettes, news items, sidebars, and archival photographs present a cursory history from the 1900s to the present. Significant events and key personalities are included for each decade. Reluctant readers will be drawn to these pictorial histories and perhaps be inspired to do further research. There are five other spring 2010 books in this series. Reading list, timeline, websites.
