Drawing together books and articles on every period of american history 20th century and earlier, it functions as both historical research reference and scholarly history index, guiding readers through the expanding landscape of professional writing on the United States.

As part of the American Historical Association publications, the volume offers a disciplined guide to history scholarship and a foundation for american historiography studies, revealing which themes, regions, and methodologies shaped the profession in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. It remains an invaluable resource for history researchers, genealogists, writers, and a trusted reference for academic libraries seeking to trace the evolution of the discipline.
