Customer Reviews

A US History Bible

This book is an acquired taste. It takes a lot of getting used to. I am currently in a US 2 AP class in highschool, and this book has all the facts about everything. We are required to read this book, as well as The American Pageant. The National Experience is the best. It isn't always fun to read, but if you need to know what really happened, then this is the book for you.

Engrossing book

This book was an intense read due to the high caliber vocabulary. Although, I would give four stars because the reader is satisfied with masses of information from the American History. You will need a dictionary and alot of time but it is well worth it. As a student in High School I would recommend this to higher level students whom desire to be an entrepreneur in history. Good luck!
