North America and The Modern World is a historical textbook written by Edgar McInnis, a professor at the University of Toronto. The book covers the events and changes that occurred in North America during the year 1945, a pivotal time in modern history. It explores the impact of World War II on the continent, including the economic, political, and social changes that took place. McInnis provides a comprehensive analysis of the major events, such as the Yalta Conference and the dropping of the atomic bombs on Japan, and their impact on North America and the world. The book also delves into the post-war period, examining the emergence of the United States as a superpower and the beginning of the Cold War.

Despite its age, the book is in very good condition, although it has been well-studied and contains pencil markings throughout. The green hardcover cloth volume has black printing and lettering on the cover and spine, with some wear and fading, as well as tears along the corners.
