So why isn't it up there? I mean, if you think it's the best then it should have at least one vote right?
Who on earth selected these books? These are supposed to be the BEST of American History Books? Where is Shelby Foote or Bruce Catton? Where is a decent history of the American Revolution? Where is there a history of Political Parties in the US?Some of these authors are inferior in writing on the subject matter. It is not only important to learn about our history, but to learn about it from leaders in the field of the subject matter. Where is the Viet Nam War?
A Bright Shining Lie is about Vietnam, as is Dispatches.Shelby Foote is on the list, on page two.
There are plenty of books on the list that are either about the American Revolution, or are biographies of the people involved in it.
And the books were selected by the people who have chosen to vote on this list.
