Great US History Book

I am not sure what book the other review is about, but there are actually 50 pages covering WWII, not 7. While there are several pages covering the 1920s and specifically focusing on the social trends and fads of the Roaring 20s, aren't those an important aspect of that time period? But it also covers in great depth the clashes over traditionalism and modernism highlighted in the Scopes Trial, the post war tensions that resulted in things like the Sacco and Vanzetti case and the growth of the KKK, and the Republican Era presidents. The book is much more detailed than any other US History book I have used and covers events as recent as 2006. I highly recommend this book
