Excellent...great as a go-to for refreshers on recent history, and engaging enough to read from cover to cover which is what I did:) It will stay where I can grab it for reference. ( ) OK, this isn't the type of book you sit and read from front to back, but it's worth reading pockets of it. It's amazing how much is crammed into this book, not that it's small. I ended up using sections of this book as a resource for some writing. I thought initially that the section might have been to thin on information, but further research at multiple websites had it standing up quite well. I picked this book up at the thrift store for $5. I think this might be the single best thrift store deal ever! Anyway... I really enjoyed this book. My only wish is that there were more "personal accounts" throughout; I like reading about historical events, but I really enjoy the 1st hand account that only a person who lived the event can give. That being said, I think that Peter Jennings and Todd Brewster did a good job cramming this book full of just about everything that happened since 1900. I would say that this was a pretty admirable accomplishment. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
