I happen to love books that upend common conceptions. This one does just that. Did you know the average poor American is more likely to own a car and has more living space than the average European? “Facts” about the Civil War (or Uncivil if we’re to be truthful) are disproven. If you ever wondered if you were getting the whole story in high school history class this book will open your eyes and provoke some good discussion. Equally interesting for 14-year-olds and adults. Cut into short sections. Easy to read and in a compelling format.
