Spectacular New Perspective

One of the greatest failures of our education system is its inability to make history interesting enough that people want to learn it so that we can stop repeating it. Then, we have Erik Larson. His brilliant writing technique turns dull historical facts into a story that forces you to continue turning the pages. Truly spectacular perspective of Churchill and those closest to him during a truly dark time in history. Also, a great glimpse of the German leaders as well. I'm truly looking forward to the next book of his I've ordered... and others after that. I think this should be a guide on how to bring history to a level that people can connect with.

I'm a lover of all things history and this book gave me a new spin on that. I have read some by Stephen King, not all, but this is a favorite of mine.

Very enjoyable film

Just watched it on Amazon Prime, found it very interesting, although I do feel sorry for the original brothers. Everyone should watch it because McDonalds is part of our history.
