A review by lela
American Messiahs: False Prophets of a Damned Nation by Adam Morris
informative
medium-paced
2.5
This book had such a bold thesis in its introduction and epilogue but the majority of the book was just recounting historic tales with little analysis/inclusion of the thesis. There were some interesting things in here but it was a bit dry - I ended up reading mostly by audiobook because physically reading wasn't drawing me in enough.
I'm not sure what to make of the author's intent with this book either... overall I think it was well-researched and an interesting history to follow but definitely missing something
