Review: A Patriot's History of The Modern World Vol 2 By: Larry Schweikart and Dave Dougherty

Patriot's History ® of the Modern World, Vol. II: From the Cold War to the Age of Entitlement, 1945-2012Patriot's History ® of the Modern World, Vol. II: From the Cold War to the Age of Entitlement, 1945-2012 by Larry Schweikart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The last six decades of history are documented and broken down in this volume of Patriot's History. Wonderfully broken down and easily explained, this is what history books should be like in school.
Timelines introduce each chapter and amazing information is relayed to the reader. Some of which, since I went to a private institution, I was lucky to be informed and educated of, but that is where it stopped - until now.
Winston S Churchill once said, "History is written by the victors." At one time I believed this and over time I became cynical, but now I see writer's like Mr. Schweikart that unveil the truth of history and deliver it in an inspiring and educating way.
This is the perfect addition to one's personal library, for one's own further knowledge or for the family's, it would also be great for reports, and being used as a reference.
