Title: Pseudohistory
Product review: Goodrich is, apparently, a trained academic, but you would never know it from this piece of nonsense. I didn't make it more than 20 pages in before I simply had to put this book down in disgust and move on to something more worthy of my reading time - as a medievalist, I'm simply not going to bother with a work of "history" by someone that clearly can't be bothered to write accurately about the most basic matters. When she mentioned 5th century Vikings, I nearly threw the book across the room but decided not to. If I ever overcome the guilt I'd have from foisting this work of misinformation on an unsuspecting buyer, I want it to be in salable condition. Presumably it would make a decent paperweight, perhaps for a stack of ACTUAL history.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
