The information in this book is very basic and poorly presented. In a few instances I think some of the terminology used tended to convey the author's personal views more than a professional, unbiased, report of history. I tried to read the book in its entirety but I just don't think I can. It is free so if you want to give it a go...you won't feel bad for wasting money at least. I doubt you'll be able to finish the whole thing though, if you are an avid history reader. I think any given text book would be more informative.
