At the successful conclusion of the Revolutionary War, America could look back with pride on the accomplishments of the preceding three decades and look forward with excitement and trepidation to the challenges of shaping its new government. It was at this time that influential groups and people emerged and set the course for the young nation. Shaping of America, 1783-1815 chronicles and illustrates this important period when America forged its place at home and on the international stage.
The Primary Sources volume uses documents, diaries, letters, speeches and other sources to explain large events as well as daily life of ordinary citizens.

From Booklist
All volumes contain the same introduction and reader's guide summarizing the period; a time line pinpointing major events; and "Words to Know" defining pertinent terms. "For More Information" concludes each article or chapter with a list of both print and nonprint resources. "Where to Learn More," offering additional books and Web sites, and a volume index close out each volume. (The set's cumulative index is published in a separate paperback, available at no charge.) The Almanac also furnishes a noteworthy resource addition, "Research and Activity Ideas," suggesting 16 creative projects for cross--disciplinary or enrichment activities. Each volume includes sidebars containing interesting information and black-and-white illustrations, photographs, and maps.
