Although history does not technically change, the interpretations and analysis of history is often changing. This 10-volume work reflects those changes within the last 25 years. This set provides 4,434 entries pertaining to American history. Some 1,785 articles have been retained from the original or 2d edition; 448 articles have been revised significantly; 1,360 articles have replaced the original articles from the 1st and 2d editions; and 841 articles are completely new to this edition. The set has also changed significantly with the inclusion of 1,200 photographs and 252 maps; the 1st and 2d editions did not contain either... Volumes 1-8 provide an alphabetic listing of key events, while volume 9 offers primary documents and archival maps and volume 10 offers a research guide and index to the set. Each article runs several paragraphs to several pages in length and each have a bibliography and see also references. All articles are signed by the contributor. Because this set has been completely revised and updated, those libraries that own the 2d edition will need to purchase this updated 3d edition.
