Black lives matterの理解に
アメリカは自分の生活にも深く関わっているが、その歴史については何も知らなかった。この本は時代々々を生きた人々の模写がいきいきとしており、楽しく読み進んだ。印象的なのは大統領の存在の大きさ。ベトナム戦争を泥沼に引きずり込んだというイメージの強いLyndon Johnsonが実はCivil rights lowなど多くの革新的な政策を行ったというのには驚いた。Black lives matter運動の根の深さを理解。

Not just for kids
The descriptions say this is written for kids, but that really shouldn't deter anyone from reading this. If you want a 3,000 page in depth history of the US, or don't mind buying ten 300 page books, go right ahead. But this is a quick-paced, easy to read book that covers things concisely enough for just about anyone. For example, a description of the Reformation and the impact on US history? About 3 pages. I'm really enjoying this book and plan to keep it handy for quick reference.
