very good book with vivid illustrations .much better than any other History book I read before , mainly because of its rich source of pictures , colorful pages , maps , and plain text .
I guess it's written for educating high school students ,( included parts like lab works, topics classified in various subjects ) ,so most of the events were explained in simple and understandable forms. Loved the neutral atmosphere in this book ; it felt as if the authors were observing the events from the third point of view without supporting either sides .
Recommending for the persons planning to read U.S. History for the first time . This book even has parts explaining some difficult words or new words . It may seem bit long (more than 800 pages) , but those pictures and maps take most of its space . I just kinda skimmed the last 400 pages in few hours . Smooooth and enjoyable reading :)
