Teaching Ideas:
Individual chapters can be used separately. Major figures from 19th century American history appear in the book, which might be an effective complement to study of immigration, founding the country, the Civil War, or African American history. Students with interest in religion may want to trace the historical roots of their own faiths. Search Yahooligans on religion to find lots of online resources.
