[Chris Passingham · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not bad, but it did reiterate a lot of myths and half truths about the history of the American land grab at the expense of the indigenous people. I didn't read the books about Jesse James as I had already read it and Davy Crockett as I consider him more of a fictional character than historical
