Would you like to be the brains at your 4th of July celebrations this year? Well you can not only make this year full of fun but at the same time learn a thing or two as well.
There is nothing to worry about, you still have time, just read on and save yourself some embarrassment later on.
This article will save your embarrassment at any American History Quiz that may take place all over America on 4th of July. In my opinion, every American should have this book on their bookshelf. This book will let your family and friends know how patriotic you are, smart and the children will be clambering over you to hear the stories you could tell.
The book is “Don’t Know Much About History: Anything You Need to Know About American History But Never Learned”, by Kenneth Davis. It is part of the “Don’t Know Much About” series of books. Kenneth Davis is a popular American historian who lectures at well-known museums like the Smithsonian and The American Museum of Natural History and publishes in the New York Times and other newspapers.
The book tells American history how it really happened. From Columbus to Clinton, you will learn about the important historical events, but also discover the myths and misconceptions over the past 500 years of American history.
This is a great guidebook on American history which the whole family will enjoy. It is a well-resourced, quirky and amusing history book that presents American history in all its excitement, not the boring blah, blah, blah we ignored in school!
