| Abstract | Advanced Placement brings into sharp focus the dilemma faced by middle, secondary and university teachers of American history. The search for an introductory synthesis stumbles more frequently these days because texts and curriculum frameworks all too often depend upon what Mary Fredrickson refers to as the tyranny of chronology. With extremely rare exception, texts are shaped by a paradigm that has remained relatively constant over the last half century. A comparison of the table of contents of Morison and Commager's "The Growth of the American Republic," 5th ed., published in 1961 with Faragher et al.'s "Out of Many," 4th ed, 2003 and Jones et al., "Created Equal," 2003 reveals some different periodization and topical treatment. Still, the texts remain locked in a familiar analytical structure. While Faragher's and Jones's treatment of late-nineteenth century America obviously reflects the considerable amount of research social history that has generated since the 60's whereas Morison and Commager reflects the more political concerns of their generation, periodization and chapter headings have not significantly changed in the nearly half century that separates the former from the latter.
