History Of The United States by Charles A. Beard
A concise, interpretive survey of American development that treats politics and institutions as products of underlying economic interests and social conflict; it follows the nation from colonial origins through independence, constitutional formation, westward expansion, the Civil War, and industrialization, arguing that class tensions, property relations, and economic motives shaped legislation, policy, and key constitutional decisions more than abstract ideals, and urging readers to understand U.S. history as the outcome of contested material interests rather than solely the actions of great men or lofty principles.
