Title: I found a huge mistake on the first page
Review: I was distressed to find a mistake on the very first page of the first chapter. Dr. Woods states that there wasn't diversity among the American colonists from 1629 to 1775. He writes that the immigrants "came from one part of Europe and spoke a common language". Then he describes four groups of immigrants from regions of England. However he leaves out the Dutch who settled in New York State in the early 1600s, the Swedes, and the Dutch and German Quakers as well as other religious sects from Germany who settled in PA. I'm appalled.Kenneth C. Davis author of Don't Know Much About History, Harper Collins, 2003, states that "by 1640, at least eighteen languages were spoken in New York..."Dr. Woods needs to learn his facts! How can I trust that any of the rest of this book is true?
