Welcome to History 110: Twentieth Century America. This course surveys the major social,
cultural, political, and economic events of the the past century in the United States. The nation
that stands on the edge of the 21st century is a very different place than it was at the
close of the 19th century. This course will provide students an overview of the historical
changes that have shaped the nation, its peoples, and its relationships with the rest of the
world in the past 100 years.
