August 4, 2011I purchased this book as a gift to myself.
It is chalk-full of the images I've seen repeatedly throughout my life. Some of which I had a basic understanding of and others I knew nothing about. I now have a much better appreciation for each piece of work, the context it was built in and how much importance they all carry to our history.
I look forward to sharing this book with my step-daughter and friends who will find it on my coffee table.

This is a very brief introduction of the United States of America.
Certainly not an easy book to read, IF you're very new to the history of the US.
But good thing about this book is, it comes in glossy paper, with lots of pictures with color.
Overall, I'd say a good book with pretty much influx. It will make history lovers like me to find more related books to have a clearer and better picture.
