US History

In no less than 550 words, use three chapters of the textbook, an article from the National Park Service websites, and a news article from a media source to construct a larger paper addressing your understanding of major lessons our society can learn from the historical period you studied this semester.  Elaborate on any of the additional questions you find applicable and thought-provoking, such as:

– What background did you have on the subject matter before you took this course?

– What beliefs did you hold about the period that were proven correct, or that you may have misinterpreted?

– Did your life experience impact any of these beliefs?

-What do think this means regarding how modern folks understand the history of their region and the world?

Format is important in this essay. Professional historians write a certain way, and it is required for this assignment that you present it in such a way. You will be required to write this essay using the Chicago Manual of Style method of document formatting and citation. The Chicago Manual of Style requires you to clearly show the sources you have used to construct your essays. Your essay must have a title page, bibliography, and footnotes that are correctly formatted to the Chicago Manual of Style for you to receive credit.
