What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 16, 2026
This is an accessible e-file version of an American History textbook covering Reconstruction through the present, formatted for use by students who are blind or have low vision. The file is sourced through APH's Louis database — a federally supported repository of accessible educational materials — and is designed for use with braille displays, screen readers, or other accessible reading tools. Students and teachers working through an IEP or 504 plan who need the curriculum in an accessible format will want to confirm their student's reading technology is compatible before purchasing. At $25, this is a file purchase, not a physical book — you'll need appropriate hardware and software to actually read it, and Federal Quota funds may offset the cost for eligible students.
