i agree not enough sussy drip shmogus bogus mogus references
There is no mention of the Indian Removal Act or Trail of Tears, which is infamous during Jackson’s years as president. There should at least be a mention of it somewhere.
I noticed there wasn’t a conclusion for this chapter
I was wondering why there wasn’t a conclusion for this chapter
I thought chinampas were specifically for farming and providing a place to grow crops.
“Much of the city was built on large artificial islands celled chinampas”
Were the structures of the city and buildings built on them as well?
It feels like a massive oversight or lie by omission to discuss the impact of American trade with Asia without mentioning Perry’s gunboat diplomacy in Japan during 1853. It’s an explicit example of the fusion of American trading policy and American military power and it’s completely on topic for the idea of the roots of America as an empire. Please consider adding this topic to the text.
Sorry not sorry but you’re incorrect.
There is no evidence to corroborate that the 2020 election was “stolen”. In fact, it was one of the most secure elections on record.
Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, and Joseph R. Biden won the presidency.
Concerning the covid talk in the 3rd to the last section, I think you should discuss how many of the “positive” cases were given to people who didn’t even die from covid.

Some of the paragraphs the text size is smaller then others for not apparent reason.
I don’t know if there is way to fix that but, if possible please try.
It would be fantastic if there were instructor resources (quiz questions, etc.) available as well.
It would be useful to include in the primary sources for Chapter 6, the US Constitution, since so much of that chapter is dedicated to that document. It would also be nice to include a selection from The Federalist Papers so students can understand the framing of the debate over the Constitution. Given the polarized nature of the electorate today, perhaps Federalist 10 would serve the purpose.
It would be great if you could highlight the text and underline it, as if it were a real textbook. Having a toolbar that allows you to take notes like you do in a physical book would be utterly helpful.
Where are the page numbers? I am using the online text for class, and we are asked to site directly from the text. However, unless I am missing something, the online text does not have a convenient way to find the page numbers.
It would be wonderful to have text-to-speech function for the text and textual sources. Many of my students commute, are ESL, or have other accessibility issues. Also, they would learn pronunciations, as well.
