  “Kind of dull and not without some sketchy logic at times. Too much focus on bashing the rich, not much focus on the general improvement of economic welfare in the US.”

  “A good read for the historically inclined, but a bit of a slog. See this post at http://bigben.blogs.com/first/2005/07/book_reviews_we.html”
