Customer Reviews

Learn something new each and every day.

You watch the History Channel and you see the inventors and inventions. Now you have book that has you questions about those Modern Marvels. The book only has 101 questions and no pictures. This is okay but I was hoping for a little more as was my kids. The book does have some challenging questions, even for adults. One thing I liked about the book is that you could use it as a game and get points for the ones you answer correctly. Overall it was entertaining and enlightening.

Short on questions but great on history.

Another installment to the Great American History Quiz series of books and like the others there is only 101 questions to work with. The book I found was more trivia type of questions rather than questions about History specifics. As with other book in the series, there is no pictures and for the young readers this may be a drawback as something are better identified by sight. Overall a good book for those rainy days when you need something to read or that car trip. The book is great for all ages as I found a few questions challenging.

Think you know the presdents, then check this book out.

We have had 43 presidents and I am sure that a book could have been written with thousands of questions about them, this book only has 101 and I was amazed and how tough they were. The other books in the series seemed relatively easy compared to these questions. The only thing I saw was that there was no pictures of the presidents and this should be a part of the book. The book does provide some new material and from the reading I don't think there was a question on each president. Overall another good book to add to the reference library.

Nice little book about war trivia.

I love history and over the past several months have been reading more and more books on U.S. History. I found this book to be a fast read and be entertaining at the same time. Like the other in the series the book is limited to 101 questions, and I found it to be written to a younger crowd, although there were a few questions that caught me off guard. The books covers most American conflicts and wars, but remember there are only 101 questions so it will not delve too deeply to any one area. Overall very good for those wanting to learn about the past.

Excellent trivia quiz

The History Channel has put together an interesting American History trivia quiz that consists of 101 questions with subsequent answers on the next page. This reviewer played a game against her husband as we tried to see who could answer the most over a week's time. The book is fun and enlightening, especially for trivia buffs.
