Nine units are developed in detail: (1) American Revolution: struggle against tyranny or unfortunate accident? (2) The Constitution: rejection or reaffirmation of the Declaration of Independence? (3) Jacksonian democracy: liberal tradition or conservative reaction? (4) Westward expansion: "manifest destiny" or economic imperialism? (5) The Civil War: avoidable or irrepressible conflict? (6) Reconstruction: exploitation of the South or genuine reform? (7) The Gilded Age, 1865-1899: abandonment of morality or period of adjustment? (8) The New Deal: evolution ore revolution?
