Are you taking part in a 4th of July Trivia? How about you learn a thing or two and make this year really fun by showing off your knowledge.
There is nothing to worry about, you still have time, just read on and save yourself some embarrassment later on.
In my opinion, this book should be on every Americans book shelf. By reading this book, you will astound your family and friends with your intellect. Have some fun with what you learn by making up some stories for the kids.
The book is "Don't Know Much About History: Anything You Need to Know About American History But Never Learned", by Kenneth Davis. It is part of the "Don't Know Much About" series of books. Kenneth Davis is a popular American historian who lectures at well-known museums like the Smithsonian and The American Museum of Natural History and publishes in the New York Times and other newspapers.
The book tells American history how it really happened. From Columbus to Clinton, you will learn about the important historical events, but also discover the myths and misconceptions over the past 500 years of American history.
The whole family will enjoy this great guidebook on American history. It is a well-resourced, quirky and amusing history book that presents American history in all its excitement, not the boring blah, blah, blah we ignored in school!
