The Penguin Historical Atlas of North America Eric Homberger
This atlas surveys the history of North America from the first settlers to cross the Bering Straits. It looks at the development of the continent's three nations - Canada, the USA and Mexico - from their colonial origins to the formation of the North American Free Trade Association, and assesses the current relationship between the three nations, and that of the region as a whole to the rest of the world. It follows the rise of the USA to superpower status and shows the impact of the two world wars.
