American Literature Anthology

Replacing an anthology required for more than 400 students of an introductory English class each year, this resource curates existing public domain early American literature (pre-colonization through 1865) into a freely-available English text. Dr. Kurtz spearheaded an effort that is considerate of the needs of all faculty who teach this course at VWCC, ensuring a department-wide adoption.
