This is a great book for assignments that are required for the course. Very easy to understand and gives an inside view of the autobiographies.

The pages in the book were loose; they came out as I read the book. Poor quality.

This review is from: Classic American Autobiographies (Paperback)
I had to read this for school. It was boring and totally uneventful. I would prefer sparknotes or audio version to get through it faster. If you have ot read for school, I feel your pain.
