Great book. I first read it two years ago. It's still wonderful each time going back to reread.

A History Book That Actually Catches My Attention

This book is great. My teacher requires us to read 3 chapters every week and reflect on them and the stories are so interesting. This is a much better way to learn history because you get an inside look at how different events changed individual lives. It's very interesting and some articles are even a bit graphic. Some actually got me a little emotional. This is a great book and I recommend it to anyone learning history.
