We are going to start the Morison book tomorrow.

This makes him an ideal candidate to write our history.<br /><br />Both are good, but frankly, I think you would find Johnson's viewpoints more palatable than Morison's. Caitlin has recently read big chunks of both to prepare for a CLEP test. You might talk to her about the differences.<br /><br />Alas, Caitlin's copy is loaned out for the school year, and Claire needs her copy. But if you'd like to peruse it, let me know.Lynn Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13993480021529143159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24404310.post-56473390029573592352009-08-19T19:29:32.631-07:002009-08-19T19:29:32.631-07:00We were given the Oxford history, so I decided to ...We were given the Oxford history, so I decided to just go with that one. I have the Paul Johnson history of England, but not his history of the U.S.<br /><br />Was he American or British?
