| Description |
Retrieving the American Past, a U.S. history custom reader, lets you select from 91 chapters written or commissioned by the History Department of the Ohio State University. Each chapter focuses on a specific topic in American history, and includes standalone sections of primary and secondary source readings that you can choose individually, or together, to create a reader that matches your course objectives exactly!
In addition, up to 20% of your custom RTAP reader can be your own writing, course notes, or syllabi, or copyrighted material from other publishers. We handle all permissions.
Program features:
- 91 selectable chapters let you choose the topics you wish to teach in depth, in the sequence you want, at the price you want your students to pay. Your students pay online for the material you choose to include.
- Each chapter includes a scholar's introduction, a secondary sources essay section, a primary document section, follow-up questions, and recommendations for further reading
- Informative headnotes place each reading in historical context
- The primary and secondary source sections are self-contained, so readers can be built around either approach or both
- RTAP topic chapters include more than 100 images to further illuminate readings
- The RTAP Documents Library also lets you select from more than 340 stand-alone documents
- Free evaluation copy! When you build and confirm your reader online using our Custom BookBuild system, you can request an evaluation copy (delivered in 7-10 business days) to examine before you place your bookstore order.
- NEW! Each student reader is supplied with a password that provides 24/7 access to a special new Companion Website with links to Pearson Education’s Resource Navigator (for conducting online research projects), and style tips for writing research reports. The instructor’s version of this website contains all of the above, plus teaching tips and more!
