History in Dispute series

Every Story Has Two Sides — And Every Entry Gives Both

Each volume in the History in Dispute series has a thematic, era or subject-specific focus that coincides with the way history is studied at the academic level. Presenting dynamic, easy-to-understand scholarship, each volume contains roughly 50 entries chosen by an advisory board of historians and academics.
Entries begin with a brief overview  summarizing the controversy. This introduction is followed by two or more signed, point-counterpoint essays of 1,500 to 2,000 words each.

The unique pro-con format fosters lively discussions, helps students organize information and promotes critical thinking.

Additional features of this valuable series include:

• Primary source materials connecting entries to actual historical documents
• Photographs and drawings illuminating pertinent individuals, sites, objects
• Extensive bibliographies guiding users to recent resources as well as classic texts for further research
• Chronological list of events framing individual events in their broader context
• Cumulative subject index and clear table of contents providing  multiple access points to target information
• And more
