Text for Honors Government: Wolfford, David. United States Government and Politics: Amsco, 2019.
- Cost: $18.95 - or $24.95 if you want the print and e-text bundle (a nice option, that would prevent students from having to lug the book back and forth to school!)
- ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE A PRINT COPY for annotations and highlighting!
- Make sure you get the 2019 version - older version won't match mine!
- Available from publisher - at the following link: https://www.perfectionlearning.com/social-studies/advanced-placement/united-states-government-politics-ap-exam.html
GOAL - Have the book by the 2nd week of class! We can supplement - but the sooner you can get the book the better! I would order early - last year we had some "back-order" issues! Students will need a book to be successful in the class!
The book is available via Amazon (but is MUCH more expensive) - I could NOT find the current 2019 version at Barnes and Noble!
