Customer Reviews
Good checkpoints in history
The writer was a bit amateur. I assume from professional authors and scientists that it is improper to refer to one's self in first person for nonfiction writing. Sentences ran on in a manner that diluted sense of dates and events. Good curious tidbits and brief detours broke the sections.
