a brilliant book, thoroughly researched and beautifully presented. This is not a boring history book, it is lively and full of wonderful anecdotes. It is quite refreshing that the book includes a great deal of material from the perspective of the participants of historical events and does not have an over-arching theoretical infrastructure.
