American History in 50 Events | Henry Freeman

so-so

A good short history reference, highlighting key events along the way. Many crucial elements are missing, but you can't pack the entire U.S. metamorphosis into a quick and easy read.

I did find several things I either never knew or forgot, which made it interesting. There were a few syntax errors, but they weren‘t terribly distracting. As of right now the Kindle version is still free on Amazon.
