Only Yesterday: Politics and the Economy 1993-2012., In my view [Conlin] has two related strengths: clear, compelling writing and pithy profiles of individual human beings who populate the text. This is a story with colorfully drawn characters. It works very well as a relatively traditional but very smart political history.

Excellent book on American History that doesn't read like a text book.
I bought this book because my knowledge of American history was sketchy, to put it mildly, This book provides a lot of in-depth knowledge, which is great.
