If
you enjoy reading good genuine history, which is all about people,
this is the most innovative and intriguingly honest perception yet, of
America's roots and growth. Ey,
An
amazing work - very labor intensive - and worthy of a PhD (in my
humble opinion, but what do I know). Your index is just as intense as
the text, for God's sake!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read it...just wished there were more pictures :~) @ponderdeeply:@jumpouttheboat Finished your book, "Beads On a String!" Perfect for home-schooling; very complete, heartwarming and winning material :~)

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Read In So Many Ways, June 2, 2011
I
just finished Beads on A String and in all sincerity I have to say it
is a work of subtle genius. Several years back I read one of the most
unusual history books ever written, "The Peoples' History of the United
States." Anyone who has read that revelation of history as events that
really happened, as opposed to events as reported by those who were
left holding the most power, will see a similar sort of understanding
in this amazing work by Ey Wade. An alternative title for her work
could well be, "A History of the People of the United States. I can
give this work no higher compliment.
I was consistently fascinated by unexpected connections,
accomplishments and contributions being added to the ongoing tapestry of
our country by so many people from so many ethnic and cultural
backgrounds, that I simply couldn't put the book down. If I could ask
for anything more, it would literally be just that...more.
This is the story of the heroes of our collective past. What is
incredibly moving is that so many of these heroes have gone unsung for
so long.
I can gladly recommend this book to anyone interested in the historical
journey of the land we live in. Beyond that, I can just as easily
recommend it to anyone who just likes a great read.
