The Imperial Cruise
The Imperial Cruise: A Secret History of Empire and War
by James Bradley
left wing revisionism (11/22/2015)
Its a shame when you realize 25 pages into a book how distorted and biased the author is toward his country. The quotes and sources are suspect and much just does not stand up to historical review. I suspect the rest of his books have the same mission-distortion for the left.
