    Very good

    This is a book chock full of information and facts. The author, rather than being against America, clearly tries to be as objective as possible. Some of that comes down pro-U.S. and some anti. Either way, its fascinating and easy to understand.

    OK, but solid liberal bias

    There was a lot of interesting stuff in here, but it's clearly written with a liberally biased "hate America" slant. The author makes fun of conservatives and tries to manipulate things to make America always the bad guy. You expect this in a political book, not a history one.
