Title: College Students, Keep Looking
Review: I purchased this book with the greatest of intentions. Unfortunately, it is so rambling and disorganized that I was not successful.In reading the other reviews, it is apparent that the focus of this book was on the college level student reader. True, to my knowledge there is nothing out there with the same focus. However, Land of Contrasts, while written at the supposed high school level (though I enjoyed it), is much more organized and a better read.I did enjoy the Bleeding Kansas section, Civil War impact, and the building boom time period of the 1880's. Then the organization starts falling apart.I tried hard to like this book, but I couldn't get past the way it jumped around in topical themes to decide whether I really was enjoying it or whether I was missing something somewhere. I decided to put it back on my book shelf and to get over the headache it had created, and then try again another day.College students, keep looking out there.
Is the review positive or negative?
