Product Description

Review

"With crisp prose and handy headers, An Economic History of the United States not only renders the complex simple to understand, but is a captivating read—no small feat for a survey half the length of the heavy textbook tomes on the market. It will prove an asset to college students and advanced scholars alike."

—Jonathan J. Bean, Professor of History, Southern Illinois

"Nothing like Seavoy’s work has been produced for several decades. Anyone interested in how and why the U.S. economy was propelled to world leadership in a short time will find this work of value."

—David O. Whitten, Professor of Economics, Auburn University

Product Description

An Economic History of the United States is an accessible and informative survey designed for undergraduate courses on American economic history. The book spans from 1607 to the modern age and presents a documented history of how the American economy has propelled the nation into a position of world leadership. Noted economic historian Ronald E. Seavoy covers nearly 400 years of economic history, beginning with the commercialization of agriculture in the pre-colonial era, through the development of banks and industrialization in the nineteenth century, up to the globalization of the business economy in the present day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, Dec 25 2011
By buttertooth - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: An Economic History of the United States: From 1607 to the Present (Paperback)
Although it takes about 20 pages to get used to the author's writing style, the information contained within the text is valuable.... He presents a unique perspective regarding the United States' rapid economic growth, with great coverage on subjects such as the original Republican Party, the social values of the different immigrant groups, insightful commentary on the policies of Hamilton, Jackson.... Overall, a very interesting book that covers the subject well.

This review is from: An Economic History of the United States: From 1607 to the Present (Paperback)
Tedious, uses lots of undefined old terminology, and jumps around chronologically, however, full of information and worth the read
