Anyon, Jean
Harvard Educational Review, v49 n3 p361-86 Aug 1979
The content of seventeen widely used secondary school United States history textbooks was examined, focusing on economic and labor history from the Civil War to World War I. It was found that the content reflects the ideology of particular groups in society and excludes that of others. (CT)
