Negative Positive
Title: ridiculously one sided
Review: I am a history buff and appreciate well written history on any subject or event. I especially enjoy books that take a balanced or at least comprehensive look at the subject matter. I understand that most history texts have a point of view, regardless of how hard the author tries to be balanced and fair. This book did not even make the effort. I was ready to be persuaded either way the author, but instead came away feeling the same way i do when i listen to a lawyer is describing how great their client's case is. In fairness i read a fifth of the way through before i abandoned the effort. I purchased it (as an audiobook) because i had previously read the author's novel "Killing Mr. Watson" and enjoyed it immensely.
Is the review positive or negative?
