First thing: it's only 200 pages written very large, the quantitative side is is light. Each "chapter" rarely exceed 4 pages, especially the famous ideas are usually confirmed with boat arguments that suggest that the authors are not experts on the topic, far from it. When one reads "Americans think that [...]" while the American people are by far the most diverse people in history, we see that there is no room for a lot of nuances. Few figures come accredit this or that general idea, each party is more like the synthetic preparation of a college student, mild (sometimes even false facts) and without one learns nothing new, even for someone who does not know anything about the history of the United States. In short, it is a rip off.
