Shorto’s writing is clear and concise without many long rants. Two annoyances so far:
1. It is a history book, you cannot just say “might have been”. It is not egregious, his hypotheticals pertain to small local events. Still annoying, though.
2. In tandem with the former, Shorto sometimes offers too much context that dilutes what the point or paragraph is heading towards.
Hudson’s chapter was great!
