Out of Many

by Professor John Mack Faragher, Mari Jo Buhle, Daniel Czitrom, and Susan H Armitage

Published 13 December 1993

This American-history survey imparts the cultural and ethnic diversity that characterizes US heritage. It weaves together the complex interaction of social and political forces that have shaped the United States, and documents the slow, contradictory, often painful struggles and triumphs within and between communities which fuelled the transfomation from a loose connection of localities and regions into one diverse region. There are chapters on slavery, the Colonial Period, the Civil Rights Movement and the Indian Peoples and their development. Pedagogical aids include photographs, maps, timelines and annotated suggested readings.

Out of Many, Volume 2

by Professor John Mack Faragher, Professor of American Culture Mari Jo Buhle, Daniel H Czitrom, and Susan H Armitage

Published 21 February 2008

Organized around the theme of American communities, Out of Many is a unique blend of social and political history that reveals the geographical, racial, and economic diversity of the United States, with a special focus on the country's regions, especially the West.

Instead of looking at the country as a homogenous whole, the authors break down the country into more meaningful and manageable building blocks: the individual, the community, the state, and the region. Showing these interplays between the individuals and groups and the groups and the regions, each chapter of the text will help students understand the textured and varied history that has produced the increasing complexity of America.
