Reviews
Gets basic facts wrong
1By LiteraryEngineerAnd not in a conspiracy theory alternative facts argument way, in very basic ways that wouldn’t even change his narrative if he got them right. If he can’t get those right, though, you have to question the rest of his “facts” There is also no logical structure holding the book together, making it very difficult to read.
