The book ruins history. It blows through important details and stretches out minor details (both Lenin and bombing Hiroshima take up only half a page). The author seems to attempt to justify all flaws of American history with "they started it." The writing is poor, adding rediculous phrases at ranom points.
I give the book two stars because, though I believe it deserves one. I was taught by a teacher who claimed that one who "duck hunts and gets good grades" was an example of a cultured person, so he may have made the book seem worse than it actually was. Regardless, it was pretty bad.
