In this second journal activity, you may write about any topic(s) of your choice, but it is best to use the textbook to study. (Free book link http://www.oercommons.org/courses/the-american-yawp/view )
For this activity, topics should address content covered in Chapters 9 - 15 in the textbook.
It is expected that, at a minimum, you are reading the assigned textbook chapters.
You are encouraged to read collateral historical writings on topics covered in the textbook.
