Dreadful

Written about as well as a half decent undergrad paper, particularly in the latter sections, this book is out of date and also makes some odd assertions that I haven't seen anywhere else. And could not someone have given the narrator a pronunciations guide? "Capua" pronounced "ca-POO-ah." This is incorrect but inadvertently sums up the quality of this book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
