Eleven historians collaborated to create a trailblazing new textbook covering key primary documents in U.S. history.

The book, "Foundations of American Democracy: A Critical Documents Reader," was published by the History Department at UNC Chapel Hill with support from University of North Carolina Press. It is available for free for students across all 16 UNC System schools through NC Live, North Carolina’s statewide library cooperative.

"Our hope is that this is a one-stop shop for anybody who is offering courses in the foundations of American democracy," said Miguel La Serna, chair of UNC's history department and one of the book’s editors.
