I loved the book and hope lots of people read it. In keeping with its title, it’s the most honest account of the American story I’ve ever read, and one of the most beautifully written. – источник2020-04-27T21:14:53.000Z
Highly recommend reading These Truths by Jill Lepore. It’s a fascinating and thought provoking read that takes us from Columbus to President Trump and helped me to better understand how we got to where we are today. Maybe my favorite American History book!!! #greatbooks – источник2020-08-18T16:10:08.000Z

If a genie granted me some wishes, one of them would be to write as cleanly and carefully as Jill Lepore. This is the general history of the United States that you both want and need. Lepore is your dream tour guide to navigate the shining moments and the worst warts of this country’s past. Buy and read this book. – источник2020-11-13T00:11:43.000Z

Jill LePore’s book These Truths is brilliant, but I highly recommend the audiobook that she narrates with such verve and personality. I really love it. – источник
