5.0 out of 5 stars Aptly named. Highly useful quotes for speeches, everyday., February 27, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Compact Classics: Book Summaries of the Classics (Paperback)
This aptly named "portable library," is well suited for any setting: home, office, or school. From the quotes (finding out who really said that) to the two-page summaries of all-time favorites such as 'Swim with the sharks without being eated alive', '1984', 'Anna Karenina', 'To Kill a Mockingbird', and 'The Joy Luck Club'. It also includes the rules of America's favorite sports, assorted trivia, and grammar guides. This book is a joy to read for recreation, and an invaluable tool for business or class.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sound smart to your friends - for people on the go, March 28, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Compact Classics: Book Summaries of the Classics (Paperback)
We all have a list miles long of books we'd like to read. But who has the time? That's where Compact Classics comes in. In two pages you'll get enough info to speak intelligently about any number of the greatest pieces of literature ever. Read this book and come off erudite, not just a trivia buff.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little bit of EVERYTHING you need to know!, June 1, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Compact Classics: Book Summaries of the Classics (Paperback)
I was given this book my a friend and found it to be totally fascinating. It is filled with interesting and useful quotes and stories (much of which I have never had time to read, or have forgotten about). It is all here in compact form! I have shared this book with my son and best friend and also have used the quotes whenever I want to put something in words that are profound and meaningful. GREAT READING I KEEP IT MY BRIEFCASE!
