About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Reviews

[Charles]

Overall, good review of high school history. Pretty insightful and interesting up until about 1900, then the quality of scholarship and presentation went down with the final lecturer. Very long, so if you've got 40+ hours to burn from audible it might be worth it.

[Stennett Eberly]

84 lectures! Took me awhile, catching it in my spare moments, but it was well worth it. It’s hard to go wrong in the hands of master teachers Allen Guelzo, Gary Gallagher, and Patrick Allitt. Highly recommended.

[Lee Radford]

An effective overview of United States history.

really enjoying this more than I thought I would. It is like a long history course with lectures but fascinating with details I had missed. Really enjoyed the colonial & civil war parts.
