Task: Question Answering
Input (English): It's better described as a tome , the kind of 700-page volume that would usually induce a shudder down my back in the bookstore as I kept on walking toward items more succinct and digestible . But because I'm traveling so much these days that I have the occasion to read ... a lot ... and because I was so taken with her speech a few months back , I did something uncharacteristic , and I bought it . And it's terrific . I haven't finished with it yet , but the reason I already love it so much is mostly to do with Goodwin's writing . It's pure history ( as opposed to historical fiction ) , but it reads like a really wonderful story ( as opposed to a textbook ) . 
Question: What may have caused you to like Goodwin's writing ?
Output (English): It's historically accurate .
