HIS 130 - The United States to the Civil War Era

The first half of a two-part survey of American life since Columbus arrived in the New World, this course focuses on four principal topics: European colonization of the Americas, the development of the colonies and the road to the American Revolution, the origins and growth of African American slavery, and the coming of the Civil War. The course emphasizes broad themes and the experience of many different groups—farmers, servants, Indians, slaves, women—as well as the achievements of great leaders. Required for history majors.
