This one falls into the category of - I'm glad this was free. I had no idea what I was getting into when I started this book. I got it awhile back and had forgotten what the synopsis was. I thought maybe I was going to get a "cliffnotes" version of history to refresh my memory a little. But, this book wasn't that at all. The authors have taken key points in history and poked fun of them, adding some of today's technology in to give it a new spin. It just wasn't my cup of tea, as they say. Some things were funny and some were offensive. I thought about just leaving it unfinished, but it wasn't quite bad enough for that. I really don't recommend it though. As a footnote though- Most kindle free books aren't this bad, so if you got a bad apple don't throw away the whole barrel.
