Mini in Size, but Not in Information! (1/1 people found this helpful)
When I ordered this guide, I wasn't sure what to expect because the price would indicate a small book with little information. However, I have been very pleasantly surprised with this book. It is a goldmine of facts about each year of the last century. As the History Education Host at BellaOnline, I need to have facts at my fingertips, and many books give lots of in-depth information that just cloud the specific information I am looking for. This sets out what is important in a concise and easy to find way. I am also a writer, and being able to find information on what was happening in a particular year simply and quickly is a great asset when writing short stories.
