AP US History — Complete Review Guide

A comprehensive, exam-focused review guide covering AP US History’s historical thinking skills (contextualization, causation, continuity/change over time, comparison, sourcing) and all nine chronological periods from pre-Columbian America through the present. Includes a custom periodization timeline diagram, fully worked examples (a contextualization statement, a document sourcing analysis, a long-term vs. immediate causation breakdown), comparison tables clarifying the specific skills the DBQ and LEQ rubrics reward, a 12-term glossary, and original practice questions with detailed explanations, including sample thesis construction. Built specifically around what actually earns free-response points — argumentative sophistication and skill application, not just factual recall — ideal for AP exam prep.
