Very Interesting Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I like this book a lot. Very interesting facts. The author takes each topic into very great detail. He is clearly a fantastic researcher. But, the detail goes a little too far sometimes. I think the average reader is not looking for so much detail. I would still recommend this book.
