<p>Hi. To put it to you bluntly, I'm reviewing through AMSCO, and I don't want to waste any time on things I don't need to read. Should I bother w/ the Historical Perspectives at the end of the chapter? Did any of you get a five without reading them?</p>
<p>Thank you in advance!</p>

<p>Thank you, sorry!</p>
<p>if you are still here, the answer is
YES you totally should. Having at least some knowledge of historiography and how people interpret history is vital for the essays and gives you a deeper general understanding. Those portions were literally the only useful thing about AMSCO. My copy doesn’t even have answers to the practice questions.</p>
