1776

Many history texts don't bring you along. They make you understand but not feel as though you were, in part, there. McCullough's texts buck that trend consistently. I felt, I still feel, as though I could smell, hear and feel some of what happened in the company of George Washington and his "Army" in 1776.

I liked it, though it was somewhat dry. I'm really glad I listened to the audio book, which helped me get into it. I did keep getting distracted and bored, so probably not the right genre for me.
