oisin175's review against another edition
5.0
The essays are illuminating on a number of topics I wouldn't otherwise have thought about and added a few books to my reading list, which is always a plus. I absolutely agree with the essay on how public history should be written in an engaging manner on a broader number of topics than the Founding Fathers, WWII, and The Civil War. I think this dearth of material in popular history books might also explain why every other historical fiction book that comes out is about one of those topics as well.
