Basic Documents in American HistoryVan Nostrand, 1956 - 192 strani Timely and timeless, these basic documents are designed to remind us of the durable qualities of American values and traditions, and how adaptable they are to a changing world.

Included are Supreme Court decisions banning segregation of races in public schools, and President Kennedy's proclamation of a quarantine of offensive weapons to Cuba. |
