Excellent recommendation. My high school kid read it (calling it her "nosebleed" book) but she did finish it and learned a tremendous amount of factual history from it.

Try "Modern Times" by Johnson as well.

Great book, too, but for American history, there is nothing like our "Patriot's History of the U.S."

By far, it has the most up-to-date research; most consistently-argued conclusions; and most thorough coverage of anything that is out there.
