The Battle of The History Books

History is the written past in the form of a story. This means that everything that happened from a certain time period that is important to the world has been recorded into books, such as the creation of the thirteen colonies, to the writing of the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution, to the wars fought, to the history that is happening as I speak. However, pre-history is the past that is unwritten, which is the time before history began to be recorded, such as the time when dinosaurs were living or the cavemen. Many history books have their own way of stating the information, some may add more detail to the story than others, or some may tell more specific information. I am going to talk about the similarities and differences between the book on America: A Narrative History, Volume I and Dr. Upchurch’s Survey of America History, Part I. Both books time frame is set between the years 1492- 1865, the time of exploration to the Civil War.

The book on America: A Narrative History. This book provides a compelling narrative history of the American experience, a narrative animated by human characters, informed by analysis and social texture, and guided by the unfolding of events. It focuses on history from point by poin


English colonization began in 1584, when Sir Walter Raleigh was eager to seek new worlds for gold, for praise and glory. He sent an expedition to explore prospects for founding a colony in America. They discovered the Roanoke Island. People started to settle on this island under the leadership of John White. But, he had to return to England for a month, and when he came back the village of Ralegh was abandoned and no trace of the colonists was ever found.

The Beginning of American History (America: A Narrative History)

This book goes into further details of the causes of the American Revolution than the book on America. It tells about the taxes that England made colonists pay, such as the Stamp Act of 1764, Sugar Act of 1765, Declaratory Act of 1766, and Townshed Duties Act, organizations that arose in protest against these acts, such as The Sons of Liberty, major and minor battles of the Revolution, and treaty that ended it, which was the Treaty of Paris in 1783. In this treaty, the United States won its independence and received all land from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River between Canada and Florida.
