Very Boring
- This book was so boring, I couldn't bring myself to listen to the whole book. It is more like a commentary on the English history than the history itself. A book by a stuffy historian for other stuffy historians. Good history books are very rare. I'm going to read David Hume's history of England instead. I Also recommend Simon Schama's "A History of Britain" DVD box set.
