American Politics: A Beginner's Guide… par Jon Roper
I'd highly recommend this book to anyone bamboozled by the coverage of American politics. The author delves into the issues of race, foreign policy, religion and the history of the formation of the US and how these have an impact on the political situation.
I would have to say that this book is well-written and researched. The author has a lot of knowledge about his subject. I learn a lot about the presidents and some facts I knew and some facts that I did not know. For example: Even though Reagan was Republican he modeled his Presidency after FDR.
In this book it contains information about their wives and key events that happened throughout their Presidency. The Pictures in the book were gorgeous and this book makes an excellent collectible. It should also be used as a reference for your children if they have projects etc.
Overall I rate this book a 4.5 out of 5 because their are some editorial spelling mistakes in some chapters.… (plus d'informations)
