Sure thing! It was certainly eye opening, I'd stop short of calling it a page-turner myself, but I think it's important to give myself a better education about our history than our classrooms were able to.

Also, as a sometimes-neurotic reader, in case this is useful - nonfiction especially you can just choose which bits to read if that makes a difference for ya. It's got a flow and a narrative of course, so you'll lose a bit that way, but I've had struggles with other nonfiction books and needed to just try to get to the meat and forgive myself for that, lol. Turns out it's totally allowed, no one even says anything!
