The Norton Anthology of American Literature, Shorter Seventh Edition, Volume 1: Beginnings to 1865 (Norton Anthology of American Literature) Review
"In this Shorter Seventh Edition of The Norton Anthology of American Literature, we offer the most extensive revision in our long publishing history, with the entire apparatus rethought, from headnotes to footnotes to section introductions to bibliographies. At the same time, we have continued to subscribe to three aims present since the anthology's inception: first, to present a rich and substantial enough variety of works to enable teachers to build their own courses according to their own ideals (thus, teachers are offered more authors and more selections than they will probably use in any one course); second, to make the anthology self-sufficient by featuring many works in their entirety along with extensive selections for individual authors; third, to balance traditional interests with developing critical concerns in a way that points to a coherent literary history."—From the Preface For more The Norton Anthology of American Literature, Shorter Seventh Edition, Volume 1: Beginnings to 1865 (Norton Anthology of American Literature) reviews click here.
