Query: AP English Flashback

I am a fan of writers like H.W. Brands and David McCullough. I was hoping this book would be presented in a similar way (i.e. a narrow topic that is thoroughly covered yet enjoyable to read). I barely made it through the intro and first two chapters before throwing in the towel. This book is written for an academic audience who enjoys the abstract.
