Historial Statistics of the United States: Colonial Times to 1970
Editorial Reviews
Review
'Historical Statistics of the United States ... contains an indispensable collection of data on every conceivable subject in American history, from population shifts to economic production, motor vehicle deaths to sources of energy.' Eric Foner, Professor of History, Columbia University
'This ultimate statistical source on numerical U.S. history has been 30 years overdue for an overhaul; now, finally, the best is even better. A bargain for all libraries supporting research; essential particularly where the original statistical sources from which the title draws are out of print.' Library Journal (starred review)
