For nearly three decades, students and instructors have complemented their introductory American Literature studies with George McMichael’s Anthology of American Literature 8e.  Carefully selected works introduce readers to America's literary heritage, from the colonial period of William Bradford and Anne Bradstreet to the contemporary era of Saul Bellow and Toni Morrison.

 

In this eighth edition, the table of contents will continue to include classic canonical works and new canonical works chosen for their literary value.  These texts represent the best available scholarly texts and include as many complete works as possible. 

 

In addition to varied and time-tested selections, an expanded chronological chart and interactive timeline help readers associate literary works with historical, political, technological, and cultural developments.
