Ummm...... Wow?
I guess it was good for something written in the mid to late eighteen hundreds. If it was translated into modern slang, I would have left a better review. Anyway, it's all mostly just people seemingly being of very large stature, to others. But keep in mind, almost everyone was short in the 1800's and farther back. Seriously. The thing said a guy was tall at fifteen, but he was only five two! My eleven year old sister is five two!
