The Gale Encyclopedia Of U.S. Economic History is an accessible one-stop resource that offers comprehensive coverage of American economic history from the arrival of Europeans to the present.

The 1, 000 alphabetically arranged entries range from one paragraph to several pages in length, and cover such things as company and industry profiles, biographies of important figures, key events and movements, critical issues in U.S. economic history, state and regional profiles, and the major eras in American economic development.
