Description

With more than two million copies sold, America remains the leading narrative history survey text because it's a book that students enjoy reading. The tenth edition is both more relevant, offering increased attention to the culture of everyday life, and more accessible, featuring a reduced number of chapters and a streamlined narrative throughout.

It's a textbook so it's definitely not something you pick up for fun. However, I liked the format and it wasn't completely dull. It gives a good overview of American history so if you are looking for something like that, then this is the book for you.
Yes indeed its a text book. Though I may have not picked up on my own, even after the finishing my American history 101 class I found my self reading section of the book. Obviously very informative but also very interesting and a good book to have around for those that like explore and know about American history.
