"History of the United States" is a monumental synthesis of American History subsequently produced by Charles A. Beard and his wife, Mary R. Beard. This book covers a period of more than 350 years, from the beginning of American Colonization to the establishment of The League of Nations in 1920. Charles Austin Beard (1874-1948) was, with Frederick Jackson Turner, one of the most influential American historians of the first half of the 20th century. For a while he was a history professor at Columbia University but his influence came from hundreds of monographs, textbooks and interpretive studies in both history and political science. His works included a radical re-evaluation of the founding fathers of the United States, who he believed were motivated more by economics than by philosophical principles. Mary Ritter Beard (1876-1958) was an American historian and archivist, who played an important role in the women's suffrage movement and was a lifelong advocate of social justice through educational and activist roles in both the labor and woman's rights movements. Contents: The Colonial Period The Great Migration to America The Development of Colonial Nationalism Conflict and Independence The New Course in British Imperial Policy The American Revolution Foundations of the Union and National Politics The Formation of the Constitution The Clash of Political Parties The Jeffersonian Republicans in Power The West and Jacksonian Democracy The Farmers Beyond the Appalachians The Middle Border and the Great West Sectional Conflict and Reconstruction The Civil War and Reconstruction National Growth and World Politics The Political and Economic Evolution of the South Business Enterprise and the Republican Party The Development of the Great West America a World Power(1865-1900) Progressive Democracy and the World War The Spirit of Reform in America The New Political Democracy Industrial Democracy
