A very interesting book, just not in one sitting.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I've had this book for several months now and I keep it in the car for reading when my wife is shopping but it ends up being read in my home as well. Every time I open up this book, I learn something new; it is not just a book of quotations, it annotates them to give them context and relevance. What people have said, and done, throughout history is truly remarkable and this book helps you to relate to these past events. If you have any interest in history at all, I would highly recommend this book. Additionally, I've found myself interested in reading about historical events that I previously thought were either not important or not relevant to my interests. Obviously, this book was never meant to be read in one sitting, but as a source of valuable information, hours of enjoyment, and mental simulation, you cannot beat this book!
