Written the way a history book should be! I typically classic works of fiction almost exclusively, but I couldn't put this book down. I've been recommending it to history buffs and fiction fans alike. Larson's attention to detail is breathtaking, and the juxtaposition of the two primary plots is intriguing. Most impressive. A great read.
