no wonder we were made to read this in high school

This is one of those books that after years of reading it, you still remember its details vividly and you would still recommend it to friends from time to time.

Breath Taking

Amazingly written in a fashion that will relate to both the young and the old reader. Great for History Classes not only because it is a quick read but also because the author accomplishes so much in so little pages.
