Huh? I thought the guy was a dumbass? Now suddenly I learn he can read!
And as a history major myself, I can say it's a fairly interesting read. The book about salt may not be anyone's favorite subject but I applaud the author. This is all stuff we knew about the subject before; he just decided to put it all in a book for us. I'm going to give the Radzinsky tome a try myself...it looks rather tasty! Anyhoo, on to the list!
