Review of 'Eyewitness to history' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Dr. Norm Jones, former Utah State University history department head, instilled in me an interest in reading history through primary documents and first-person accounts. This book is a treasury of such writing, covering events from the death of Socrates in 399 BC and the battle of Agincourt in 1415 to an American slave sale in 1846 and the first moon landing in 1969.
