Ladies and Gentlemen, I just finished this book and it is quite fantastic.

If you are at all interested in history, and the fact that history didn't "just happen" as we know it...in other words, that it could have been different based upon actions of individual human beings and thus nations, this has got to be at the top of your list.

It is exciting, exhilarating and thrilling to read. It's relatively short and I bet you'll finish it in a matter of hours or a few days reading at bedtime.....
