    I use this to check historical movies for accuracy. Love to see a broad review of what was going on at the same time in history instead of just the USA

    I always download sample to see if it's any good - I started reading over the chapters and got really excited. Here's a book that goes way back and then up to the present. I buy the book and start to read it. To my surprise, the "chapters" are the book! So what you get in the sample is the book, one to two sentences for topics. How did this get such great ratings? Don't buy this book, The sample is the book. I hope I can save someone else from doing what I did. The person or persons responsible for doing this should be ashamed of themselves.
