Author: Kevin Baker
Title: America, the Story of us: An
Illustrated History
Description: Published
by the History Channel, this book is filled with beautiful color illustrations
(probably about half text and half pictures). It gives a pretty standard and
surface-y history (in about 400 pages, that’s all you can do).
Source: ALA
Writing style: Documentary
but interesting.
Audience: Adults
(or maybe advanced high schoolers).
Wrap-up: I read this
one bits at a time and it was pretty interesting, but I think it would get a
bit monotonous if devoured in gulps (not a page turner). Worth taking a look
for the pictures, though. 3/5*
