I am guessing this book was one of those books which treats the events therein as a story rather than an encyclopedia article. Because the events are a story and books that treat stories like a timeline don't sell well.
So the author wrote it like a story.
Including things like details about setting, which are in a story.
Because you were reading a story. One about real events, but a story nonetheless.

Most likely correct.
Ugh, I should get to reading my summer reading book soon :/
It's so boring though. Why can't I read something fun? Like Siddhartha again, or Managing Spaceship Earth by Buckminister Fuller?
Oh? What are you reading?
Whoops...
