These Truths: A History of the United States

Her choices shape the narrative of the nation’s story. I wonder what influenced her to focus on some events over others and how she balanced different perspectives.

The depth varied throughout, which made me think about how history is told and what gets foregrounded. I'm curious if this reflects available sources or a thematic focus.

The book feels both timely and urgent, prompting questions about what motivated Lepore to tackle these truths now and how current events influenced her approach.
