"AP US History summer book. Opening chapters on early North American people and first explorers to reach America are riveting. Chapters dealing with each of the original 13 colonies are also well-written. Some later chapters get a little monotonous, especially the one on surveyors. Study questions will be posted online in reading group over summer."
"Okay, I broke my reading rule with this book. I couldn't finish it. It was just getting too monotonous with all the names and dates, and blah blah blah. The first part of the book was very interesting, reading about the first explorers to the US and then about the first colonist and the peoples that made up the first colonies. Also, the section on the French was really interesting since it realated to Quebec. But after that, I just lost interest and had to put it down. Oh well."
