Title: A book for your children
Review: After reading the first chapter of this book, one can see that this was intended for the 'Young Adult' section of the public library. The research background of the author seems...well, intuitive, rather than empirical. As a Cherokee writer, he seems to base many of his conclusions on his own experiences of what Cherokee people are like (independent, democratic, etc). But is this a rigorous method for historical research? I paired this book with other, more scholarly works, however, and since the fluffiness of the writing style did not take much brain power it is a nice break from more academic works.
Is the review positive or negative?
