American Yawp / Feedback

The periodization with this is awkward. Manifest Destiny is best dealt with as a Western phenomenon. Indian Removal should be dealt with earlier under the Age of Jackson. Placing it here makes this chapter longer than it need be, and confuses the issues here.

It should be U.S. Steel not Carnegie’s U.S. Steel.

You have it wrong here again: It is the National American Woman Suffrage Association

It is the National American Woman Suffrage Association not the National American Suffrage Association.

That’s a keen observation; I guess they author’s intention is to appeal to the perspective of the European settlers, but being a valued historical textbook, they probably should have opted for a more objective title. I agree…I wonder why they chose that approach.

If they were so good at surviving, then how come they didn’t live into their 100’s?
