THE HEATH ANTHOLOGY OF AMERICAN LITERATURE, CONCISE, VOLUME 2 brings the expansive, inclusive approach of Volumes C, D, and E of THE HEATH ANTHOLOGY, to a single-volume format. While other one-volume texts anthologize primarily familiar canonical works, the new HEATH CONCISE, VOLUME 2 offers a fresh perspective for courses in American literature and showcases the extraordinary diversity of literature written between 1865 and today.
