[ISLMA-Share] This Is America: FREE ebook for US election season

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Berkshire’s acclaimed popular little history of the United States THIS IS AMERICA was written for global citizens who wonder what America is all about. That’s a big question for lots of people in 2016, so Berkshire Publishing has partnered with Flexpub to offer a free ebook edition from now until the 8th of November, Election Day. The ebook is fully optimized for mobile reading, and is on an easy-to-use independent platform (instead of only available through Amazon or BN). Get your copy via Facebook or Google+, or by email. It takes just one click to register and read on all your devices: http://berkshire.flexpub.com/purchase/dXgwX.

We’d love to hear your comments and if you have teaching material or discussion questions you’d like us to share with other interested educators, please get in touch!

And share this offer with friends and family elsewhere in the world, or people visiting or newly resident in the United States. At Berkshire, we’re all for world history, but understanding the United States strikes us as a worthwhile effort. We American citizens can use a refresher course, too, and books like this are even more important as US history is cut from the curriculum at many colleges.

Here’s one review: “Thoroughly accessible to readers of all backgrounds, THIS IS AMERICA lives up to its title as a brief yet solid overview of American history. . . . A timeline of major events in American history, an index, and a selection of suggested readings round out this excellent resource for anyone seeking to quickly refresh and solidify their knowledge, including prospective immigrants or high school and college students. Highly recommended, especially for public library collections! -Midwest Book Review.
