Comic History of the United States
by Bill Nye
This text takes the reader on a comical journey from the time of the first European settlement through the Civil War. The author’s caustic wit is evident throughout the book in his numerous sarcastic and humorous remarks. The reader will enjoy a “different” type of history book based on facts, yet caustically embellished for entertainment purposes. (Summary by Allyson Hester)
