New Map Exercises in each chapter provide students with a map's historical context and then take them through a series of questions designed to develop map-reading skills as well as to launch an interpretive analysis of the map.
A Thematic Timeline at the beginning of each chapter is a new feature that previews key events and the themes connecting them.
Chapter Bibliographies have been updated, to reflect new scholarship.
Chapters have been revised to reflect new trends in scholarship. For example, Chapter 7 - The American People and the American Revolution, includes a new section about the varied roles of women in the revolutionary war, and the discussion of the contribution of the french in the war has been expanded.
Primary sources help students think critically about history and expose them to contrasting perspectives of key events. The Ninth Edition of Experience History provides three different ways to use primary source documents in your course.

Many Histories. Two primary source documents offer contrasting perspectives on key events for analysis and discussion. Introductions and Thinking Critically questions frame the documents. For example, how did Spaniards and Aztecs differ in their account of first contact? Or, what were the arguments used to justify the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII, and how did they compart to the experiences of those imprisoned?
Historian's Toolbox. In each chapter, these feature boxes showcase historical images and artifacts, asking students to focus on visual evidence and examine material culture. Introductions and Thinking Critically questions frame the images.
