'From the modest and recent beginning - a collection of articles on the theme of 'Historical Population Studies' in Daedalus in 1968 -, the study of demographic history in the United States has expanded dramatically.

The essay is an attempt to look at the evolution of, and some current directions in, research on a few clusters of central problems.
