This course encompasses the same chronological period and thematic coverage as HI105, but it does so through monographic and periodical literature and a greater emphasis on classroom discussion. These courses assume some familiarity with American history and consequently place special emphasis on historical analysis and criticism. Moreover, students acquire a broader understanding of American history and the historian's methods.
