Welcome to my brief history of the United States. Or, as I like to call it, the version of American history. Why waste your time reading those long, boring history books when you can just read this one instead? I promise to make it informative and hilarious at the same time.
Now, I know what you thinking: What qualifies this person to write a book on American history?" Well, let me tell you, I once got an A- in 10th-grade history, and I’ve watched every episode of Hamilton on Disney+. So, I think it’s safe to say that I’m basically an expert.
But in all seriousness, I wrote this book because I truly believe that history can be fun. It’s not just a bunch of old dead guys and their boring speeches. It’s a series of epic stories that have shaped our country and the world. From the Boston Tea Party to the moon landing, there’s no shortage of fascinating tales to tell.
And let’s be real, American history is kind of insane. We’ve had presidents who wrestled alligators, wars fought over pigs, and a whole bunch of other crazy stuff. So, buckle up, because we’re going to take a wild ride through the past and see just how we got to where we are today.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. And if you don’t, well, then you can just blame my high school history teacher for not making the subject more entertaining.
引言
歡迎來到我的《美國簡史》。 或者，正如我喜歡稱之為美國歷史的“懸崖筆記”版本。 既然可以讀這本，為什麼還要浪費時間去讀那些又長又無聊的歷史書呢？ 我保證會同時提供信息和搞笑。
現在，我知道你在想什麼：“這個人有什麼資格寫一本關於美國歷史的書？” 好吧，讓我告訴你，我曾經在 10 年級的歷史課上得過 A-，而且我在 Disney+ 上看過漢密爾頓的每一集。 所以，我認為可以肯定地說我基本上是專家。
但說真的，我寫這本書是因為我真的相信歷史可以很有趣。 這不僅僅是一群死去的老傢伙和他們無聊的演講。 這是一系列塑造了我們國家和世界的史詩故事。 從波士頓傾茶事件到登月，不乏引人入勝的故事。
說實話，美國歷史有點瘋狂。 我們有與鱷魚搏鬥的總統，為豬而戰的戰爭，以及一大堆其他瘋狂的事情。 所以，係好安全帶，因為我們將穿越過去，看看我們是如何走到今天的。
我希望你喜歡這本書，就像我喜歡寫這本書一樣。 如果你不這樣做，那麼你只能責怪我的高中歷史老師沒有讓這門課更有趣。
這作者很有自知之明，美國歷史也只能是簡史。
