Interesting Book

This book covers 2,000 years of European history from a unique angle. Major figures such as Henry VIII and Napoleon make brief appearances in a larger picture of the passage of time. Occasionally it is a little difficult to remember who everybody is but given the number of them and the repeated use of names this is only to be expected. However, this is an absorbing and reelatory read.Read full review

On the ball.

I really thought this book was going to be funny, but so far (and I haven't got far) it's not and I'm finding it quite hard going. Otherwise the book is in good condition and no doubt I'll gradually get through it. I have read J.J.Norwich before and found him amusing.Read full review

Comprehensive, yet manageable in small sections.

A comprehensive history of the popes which you don't need to read from Page 1 onwards-you can dip in anywhere and then read as little or as much as you like for a snapshot of the period you have chosen.
Intelligently written.
