He deffo knew his stuff, researched well, and knew how to write.  But his writing style was very clunky, the pacing was a bit off and kept pulling me out the story bc it would jump around from fast passed and skimming to slow and in-depth.  I also would’ve preferred conclusions at the end of each chapter on how this linked to current corporate powers - the conclusion at the end was good but should’ve been weaved in throughout the book.  But the history was interesting and I did learn a lot.
