Book Reviews of A People's History of American Empire
Book Review: A Good Introduction for The Curious.
Summary: 4 Stars
I have never been a big fan of books that over-simplify their topics and I really don't have much appreciation for those that use cartoons to do so, but this book is a great introduction for the curious. The artwork is great and the extremely simplified text is good if only to introduce the reader to information they previously had never known. I would hope that this book will do just that...introduce the reader to new information AND encourage them to look deeper and seek more detailed accounts.
If you are already well versed in our nations imperial past, present and possible future, this book will appear as if it was written for a 12 year old. If however you are just begining your journey into the topic of American Empire it will absolutely spark your interest and give you direction into many different areas of our history that deserve more in depth coverage and explanation.
