I found your reviews most matching to my take on the book. I simply could not get into it. Too much of plot that simply does not seem important or accurate to any history I have ever read. Sorry about that because it looked good from the beginning--but failed thereafter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-54964509327277147132009-02-12T03:35:00.000+11:002009-02-12T03:35:00.000+11:00I have this one on my shelf, and haven't gotten ar...I have this one on my shelf, and haven't gotten around to reading it yet. After this review, I may never get around to it.
