Journeys Through American Literature

The popular Journeys through American Literature has been split into two books to facilitate usefulness in high schools and shorter literature-based programs. Book 1 provides grounding in literary devices and styles, 19th century American short stories, and 19th and 20th century essays. Book 2 also provides an introduction to literary practices, but it continues with 19th and 20th century romantic poetry, the novel, and a special chapter on multicultural writers. The Instructor’s Manual for the full edition may be used with the split editions.
