I'm not sure why I was giving the earlier volumes in this series only 2 stars. The writing is totally corny in many places, and obviously a lot of information is overly simplified for this format, but as I finish the series, I appreciate the project of it more. The special section on art in the 9th book was a nice bonus too.

It was good but at times the author can be mean.

This was book 9 and I will not read the others. For the most part however the book was good. however I feel it appeared to be written by a person of liberal and anti republican thinking. I am concerned that the youth of today would not realize the price of freedoms that get lost when socialism's and programs that encourage many social programs are implemented. Its a very fine line that must be walked when writing history.

I was taking a history class when I listened to this book. I have a hard time memorizing facts that are meaningless to me. This book was told like a story and it was easy to follow and relate to the characters and so some of it at least stuck in my brain. I'm not a history buff by any stretch of the imagination - so this was a perfect way for me to learn about this period in history.
