Very Good

This book was in the condition described. Very clean and no marks. It also came before I thought it would. Good job and thank you.
Good history book for summer class
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book was a required reading in a short summer history class. The book reads well and is relatively easy to get through. The chapters are organized into sections based on events, so there were some time jumps that I found confusing, but other than that this was one of the best class books I've had.

Well written
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
James A. Henretta and his colleagues have successfully written a concise history book that is not boring or tedious. It offers smooth transitions from topic to topic. It's concise and not boring, not like a tranqualizer like some history texts.
