Following Scribner's Encyclopedia of the North American Colonies (1993), the Encyclopedia of the United States in the Twentieth Century (1995), and the Encyclopedia of the United States in the Nineteenth Century (2001), the Encyclopedia of the New American Nation: The Emergence of the United States, 1754-1829 completes a sweeping look at American history, seeking to provide "comprehensive access to the history and development of the events, trends, movements, technologies, cultural and social changes, political ideas and systems, and intellectual trends that have shaped America." Covering the founding period of the U.S., the newest alphabetically arranged set contains 667 entries on a plethora of topics. Entries run from a page for relatively narrow topics, such as the Acadians, to more than 20 pages for broad general topics (e.g., politics) and are written by subject experts with college or university affiliations.
