Review # 1 was written on 2021-02-18 00:00:00 Igor Van Driessche I enjoyed this book , but only because the author talks about the town that l grew up in, and l enjoyed the historical references . It was interesting to read about the basic founding of the Knollwood section of Short Hills, NJ by Stuart Hartsorn ( my friend’s great grandfather) and the early residents. The author outlines the early development of the area. The church, Christ Church , the old casino which became the Racket’s Club where we had “ memberships”and the older houses in Knollwood that my friends lived in. The rest of the book was a bit boring especially since it was never actually established what line of work in finance the author was actually engaged in. The rest of the book should probably be read by young people going into the financial industry, because history always repeats itself.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-01-12 00:00:00 Heather Martz This is obviously an abridged history from the time of the Conqueror through the death of John. It was dry and read like it was from a history professor (as it was), a rather boring one at that. He often used the royal we, and other phrases such as "about this time…" instead of speaking with authority. Yet he had no problem inserting supposed things that had been said. At least he acknowledged the obvious successes of William, Henry I and Henry II. He clearly loathed John and painted a much better picture of his tyranny than did the previous author that I read did. I'm still looking for something better to read so I can get a clearer picture during this time especially since so much was lost and the signing of the Magna Carta.
