BOOK REVIEW 1-4 THE USA

I read the book name is THE USA. The reason why I want to read this book is that I’m interested in America. I don’t know about America well. So, it was very interesting for me to read this book. I want to write its memorable parts.
First, I was impressed by American history. I took the EnglishHistory class last year, and I learned about histories of America, England and so on. But then I was not interested in history, so I don’t remember about it now. And, I want to quote outline from this book. “There were no people in America 30,000 years ago. Around that time, the first people probably arrived in Alaska from Asia. They traveled south and became the North Americans Indians, and the Aztecs, Mayas and Incas and other peoples of Central and South America. Later came the Inuit (Eskimos) of Canada and the Arctic. But there are only few of these early peoples in America today.” I know that America has many races like Japanese, Chinese and so on. So, I satisfy of this story.
Next, I was impressed by the book written about black Americans. I have heard that black Americans were discriminated against. They were slaves. But now, I think that it stops. Many athletes are black Americans. I respect them. Then, I want to quote something. It is written as “USA facts”. First, “A story about the hard life of slaves called Uncle Tom’s Cabin, by Harriet Beecher Stowe, was one of the most popular books of the mid-nineteenth century and made a lot of people see that it was wrong to keep slaves”. I have heard Uncle Tom’s cabin. I have not read it, but I think I want to read. I know that black Americans had been discriminated, but I don’t know details of it. Next, “Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass were famous slaves who helped many other slaves escape from the South to the North using a route called the ‘underground railroad.” I don’t know Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass. But when I read it, I thought they are grate men.
When I read the book named “THE USA”, I learned many things about United States of America. And I thought I don’t know about America well. I want to learn not only English, but also American history.
