Tom Wannamaker’s Reviews > Peace, They Say: A History of the Nobel Peace Prize, the Most Famous and Controversial Prize in the World > Status Update

Love the book. Jay Nordlinger does not disappoint-- same witty but informative style I know him for in his NR columns and essays. The pleasure of this book for me is that it's a collection of dozens of mini-biographies, both the Nobel Laureates and the great historical figures also on stage at the time.
