E Commerce Law & Business Book

Oh my dear God. I can't believe I finally finished this book. I don't even know how long I've been reading this book - at least 8 months, I'd say. The story *should* be interesting. A professional soldier of Scottish descent swindles hundreds of Scots and Brits into giving him money and buying land in a country that does not even exist. He even puts the ones who bought land on a ship and sends them off to this fake country in South America. It sounds fascinating. In reality, this is like reading the driest history text book ever. Endless boring accounts of military maneuvers and family history - it's like reading the begats in the Bible. The very few pages that are spent discussing the actual con are relatively interesting, but I'd say those pages are maybe 30-40 in a 300+ page book. I'm glad I know this history of this story, but I will NEVER read this book again and I will NEVER recommend it to anyone else. I'd like a writer with an interest in story to have a go at this. As for my copy, it's going straight onto BookMooch.
