NOT RECOMMENDED TEXT, Feb 26, 2009
By slamson, Sacramento, CA

"Was told that this was the EXACT same text but in fact it was not. The ISBN number was sold as the 4th edition and I received the 3rd. This edition does not have any chapter reviews as in the 4th edition. DO NOT recommend as most teachers utalize the Chapter reviews."

"OK, once again . . . get out your pen and pencil, take your time, review and learn. This is not something to be read to enjoy. This is a learning experience. I spent a good two months on this one taking notes and driving this info. into my head. Why? How else can I show appreciation for my for-brothers and -sisters? To love your country is to learn of it and then learn what you can do for it and all those who've lost their lives, are living, and to come."
