Stoneysilence (30 KP) rated Bill O'Reilly's Legends and Lies: The Real West in Books
Sep 7, 2017
Written for Teens
I guess I was expecting too much when I bought this book and decided to read it. It cover twelve famous people from the wild west, but at less than 300 pages that puts each famous person at only getting about 20 pages each and that is included probably 4-6 photos or drawings for each character probably taking up 2-3 pages of the alloted 20.
So in essence what I had hoped would have been a well done more in depth detail of these famous people turned out to be college level essays on each one. It’s well written, there is no doubt about that. It’s just something I would expect from a Freshman college level course or a High School Senior. Maybe that is because this books is targeted at a very casual audience. In fact if I was a teacher in HS or MS I probably would assign this as reading.
But if you know much at all about the wild west or where hoping for a more in depth book, then look elsewhere and get this for you kid or grand kid instead.
Normally I would have rated it 4/5 but it has DRM so it gets a 3/5 instead, especially at the outrageous price it is selling for.
