Reviews

[Brian · Rating 4 out of 5]

An interesting, well chosen selection of brief lives, including some details not easily obtained elsewhere.

I must be crazy to read a dictionary?! Very hard to use this due to the way people are cataloged. Not all that useful either given that not enough entries. However glad to own it

This book isn't for sitting down and reading. It's a collection of biographical sketches, and assumes a lot of knowledge about the era. Interesting, but more for reference than reading.
