Review # 1 was written on 2019-05-14 00:00:00 Gregory Murphy The inside story of the misdemeanours of the all-powerful Kray twins by their elder brother, who was usually on the periphery of their activities. East End London (where I was courting my wife at the time) must have been a nightmare particularly if one got on the wrong side of the twins and they also saw action, as it were, in America where they befriended the stars, so much so that they acted as bodyguards for many stars on their visits to England. An engaging, if perhaps at times horrifying, read.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-10-02 00:00:00 Kimberly Hayes This edition is abridged from three volumes to one of 294 pages hardback. Missing are Prescott's voluminous footnotes, details of battles and court life, and other matter of little general current interest. Prescott himself began an abridgment due to economic considerations but did not complete it. This is masterly writing of history, comparable to his histories of the conquests of the Aztecs and of the Incas, missing only some of the swashbuckling adventure appearing in those two. With her intelligence and firm dedication to her subjects, Isabella is the finest figure in this period of Spanish history, possibly the best epoch ever for the average Spaniard, despite the great stain of the Inquisition.
