well its not short, but this one's really good.
Its called United States History: Preparing for the AP exam by John J Newman and John M Schmalbach published by AMSCO publications 2004. Its a really comprehensive yet brief book.

" the jungle" by upton sinclair. it's longer the 200 but a good read. its about the awful working conditions at meat-packing factories in the early 1900's. very detailed and chilling. if it's for a class, your teacher will love the choice.
