A perfect tool for parents and teachers!

If you're concerned about your students' knowledge of geography, you have
good reason. In a recent test of Dallas students, 25 percent could not
identify the country that borders the United States to the south. In
Baltimore, 45 percent of those tested could not respond correctly to the
instruction: "On the attached map, shade in the area where the United
States is located."

The American History Atlas links geography with history. giving students a
useful and meaningful "anchor" for their knowledge of geography. For
example, it's easier to remember that Pittsburgh is located at the
confluence of three rivers if you know that's why it was chosen by the
French in 1754 as their base of operations for the French-Indian War.

American History Atlas also comes with graphic tools and the flexibility to
manipulate data and create whole new maps for personal study or teaching.

So whether you're helping your children study at home or preparing teaching
aids for class, American History Atlas is an educational resource you
won't want to do without!
