Deeply Researched and Informative

I think this should be required reading for high schoolers, but hey, what do I know. Donald Wright knows his topic every which way and it shows in his writing and in the bibliography. How can one argue with this level of detail? To me, it would be impossible to do so, but in some circles this book would probably be be banned. All the more reason to read it. The embarrassingly tragic part (there are many tragic parts, so I have to specify which tragedy I'm discussing here) is that it's so easy to see the echoes of what we have going on now back in the Colonial Era. Worthwhile and meaty, but very readable.
