Brinkley survey american history 13th edition

However, the book was rather dull at times with the author focusing too much on events that nobody cared about such as patterns of American culture in the s. The characters and plot of the book were excellent, I just did not appreciate the authors monotone and tedious writing While the book had lots of interesting and dynamic characters, the writing could have been better.

The characters and plot of the book were excellent, I just did not appreciate the authors monotone and tedious writing style. Jan 07, Chris Morris rated it did not like it. Brinkley often uses bland language and is completely unclear when explaining historiography. He writes a page textbook, yet often makes generalizations and fails to capture the big picture of historical events. You will find much better luck on google search engine than in this textbook.
