Filled with presumably accurate historical details, this book ought to be interesting. In fact, in the beginning, it hooked me with its humor and beautiful writing. Half-way through, I began to feel bored and didn't finish it, but I am going to give it 4 stars because I think others might like it.
Be aware that because of the subject matter and times the book deals with, it naturally contains some savage or gruesome scenes. (There are a few images I wish I could forget.)
