Milton C. (Tarheel57) reviewed on 9/10/2009 + 6 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

I wish I had read this before seeing the PBS series. It is illuminating to see behind the veil of time and learn about the human qualities of these great men who are usually viewed through our history books as near perfect. It is also greatly satisfying to read a book that is so well written. Mr Ellis offers us a slice of history that is not only extremely well researched but also literate and highly readable. I loved this book.
