copypaste?

The opening section of this page is exactly the same as the text in "e-Study Guide for: American History : A Survey, Volume I by Alan Brinkley, ISBN 9780073367781" from the google books webpage -

https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=lqhRjuykyi0C&pg=PT17&lpg=PT17&dq=%22william+henry+mcneill%22+llama+1830&source=bl&ots=g40nOClzSp&sig=hfwApUzYQrSUHUIguiQEpVZN3c4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj9iIyc0cTNAhUoCsAKHQjDAL0Q6AEILDAD#v=onepage&q=%22william%20henry%20mcneill%22%20llama%201830&f=false

this e-book dates from after text was added to the Wikipedia page, but I suspect it came from an earlier work by the same author, probably "The Unfinished Nation: A Brief, Interactive History of the American People Vol. 1 to 1877 1st Edition" ISBN-13: 978-0073133461 - which unfortunately I don't have a copy of so am unable to confirm this suspicion. The e-book is much shorter than the original book so it is possible that the book may also contain other text that has been copypasted into this article too.
