This review is from: Prologue to Love: A Novel About a Woman Financial Genius (Hardcover)

I chose this book from my college library stack 25 years ago on a Friday afternoon when I had no weekend plans. I left my desk only when absolutely necessary, or to sleep, until I finished the book. Without a doubt, the best book I have ever read. Atlas Shrugged runs a close second. I have picked it up several times to read again through the years.

5.0 out of 5 stars A novel requiring a reader's introspection upon completion, December 25, 2004

This review is from: A Prologue to Love (Paperback)

This is, by far, the best book I have ever read. Taylor Caldwell's writing style allows the reader a vivid sense of the character's personalities and lifestyles. You feel like you are right there in the era, in their homes and in their lives. The best part of the book is realizing the true meaning that many readers could never identify with in their personal lives. Hopefully, you are not one of those people. You will want to share this book with others, after you have read it as quickly as you can, because you won't want to put it down!

This review is from: Prologue to Love: A Novel About a Woman Financial Genius (Hardcover)

I first read this book as a young teen and was impressed, not realizing how much subtle information was in the book about the state of the world.
Over the years I have read this book several times, and just recently found it again. I can only say that if you are open minded enough; you will be amazed at the information in this book about the new world order.
