    America fully alive — but in transition. A true adventure story. If it hasn’t been, this book would be a

    An encyclopedic look at an important year in our history - wrapped in an amazing dose of timing and humor. Bryson explains “why” too! Ruth, Lindy...

    Excellent historical book

    As someone with 2 college degrees in history, I knew quite a bit about the events in the book. However, many of details, I'd forgot.. my degrees were in 1969 and 1975. It is a wonderfully written book, full of humor, tragedy, bigotry, violence, and drama, leading up to Great Depression. Henry Ford was one of the most interesting characters. A man who changed the world, but was a bigot, quite dumb, and a fan of Hitler. Hitler liked Ford too and praised his River Rouge Car plant near Detroit. Hitler used the plants design as a model for his aircraft factories. World War II, was what got us out of the Great Depression, not political leaders or bankers...they connived to cause it.

    Lively history and fun facts.

    If you enjoy Bill Bryson as much as I do, you don't want to miss this one. If you enjoy history with a bit of fun and/or little known sidelights tossed in (I didn't know WGN stood for "Worlds Greatest Newspaper!), this book is for you. Once I started it, I just wanted to keep right on reading, it's a hoot to say the least, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
