3.0 out of 5 stars Irrelevant Information, August 27, 2003

This review is from: Nostradamus: The Man Who Saw Through Time (Paperback)

If you're interested in the history of France, you may like this book. However, it tells far more about the history and politics of France than it does Nostradamus himself. Names are thrown in everywhere, and it's hard to distinguish whom certain information pertains to. It tells a good bit of information about his education, and it has a multitude of quatrains and their interpretations in Part Two of the book. If you're looking to read on Notradamus, there has to be a better one out there.

This review is from: Nostradamus: The Man Who Saw Through Time (Hardcover)

It was my first time to go deeply into some of the prophecies and prophets. This book really got me throughout end of the book. It contains his birth to his death... It also contains ALL of his prophecy in order, relating with his life events. You will suprised by how much this book tells about his life.

4.0 out of 5 stars this is a re-issue, June 17, 1999

I have read this book about 10 years ago. So please forgive me. This Title was originally published by the creative press in July of 1941. so if you are into seeing the changes in the interpretations of the Quatrains over the last 58 years, this is a book for you. If you are into reading the quatrains themselves, than this is also the book for you. I enjoyed reading it, and occasionally pull it out after seeing a documentary about the predictions.
