The scheduled readings provide both focii and springboards to further inquiry.The following required course books are available at the Campus Bookstore. An effort has also been made to place copies of these books and other course readings on reserve at Stauffer Library. It is not necessary to purchase all of these books. There are also many textbooks available in the library. If you lack familiarity with American history, it would be a good idea to consult a text when you feel it necessary.
