Hello everyone:

I am posting for recommendations on a solid ass US history textbook for my Junior High class. I have been using Prentice Hall's 2005 edition of the American Nation. My curriculum needs updating.

For reference, 7th grade consists of the early colonial period through the Reconstruction.

8th grade consists of the Progressive Era to modern day.

So far, I have checked out Nat Geo / Cengage's US history book, TCI's History Alive, and McGraw-Hill's Discovering Our Past.

What do you use or what would you recommend?
