Book Review of The Forest

The Forest
The Forest
Author: Edward Rutherfurd
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback

Rutherford is a recognized British literary historian who takes a particular subject and does what James Michener does; this book starts in the medieval age and comes to 19th century. Since sections stand alone, it is a good book to have to dip into and save the rest for later; there's no point in trying to follow characters due to the time line having gaps.
His writing style is very readable and I really enjoyed the book; I think all Anglophiles would too.
