The American YAWP
The American YAWP is a free, college-level U.S. history textbook available online and as a downloadable PDF. Written collaboratively by dozens of historians, it offers a narrative overview from pre-contact through the 21st century with primary sources and scholarly notes. Homeschool teens and parents like its balance of readability and depth, especially as a spine for high school American history. There are no built-in tests, so you’ll add your own assignments, but as a rigorous, no-cost text from working scholars, it’s hard to match.
