For history fiends like me,
By Alexander the Great (Bindi Bindi, Queensland, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Oxford Book of Historical Stories (Hardcover)
This is a great book. If you want your historical fiction in small bites instead of great dusty tomes, this is it.It's also surprising to see who has written history tales over the years. Just buy it.

Great collection of different stories,

This review is from: The Oxford Book of Historical Stories (Hardcover)
I bought this book for one story only - the wonderful and witty "A Slice of Medieval Life" which packs a real punch in its 3 and a half pages. The other stories were neither here nor there really.But I am pleased to report that they all have justified the purchase, and I have enjoyed them all. This is a great book for people who like their doses of historical fiction, without ploughing through the great heavy tomes in which it is usually presented. The stories are well written and very clever, and all in all this book is well worth your attention. |
