Description: The Entrepreneurial Experience is a unique text in its positive portrayal of the American entrepreneurial spirit and in its pro-market, pro-entrepreneur perspective. Professor Schweikart emphasizes that individuals, not groups, are most responsible for the creation of wealth in America and that individual entrepreneurs, if left to their own devices, through the market will have a much better chance of solving problems than if controlled or regulated by the government. While the book covers the full extent of the history of the United States, it is substantially modern-oriented with approximately forty percent of the text concerned with the twentieth century. This text is appropriate for courses in American Business History and American Economic History found in history, economics, and business departments.
