The story is easy to read; the pages are glossy and colorful; and I find myself easily understanding a story I thought I would struggle to comprehend. There are notes and sidebars that enhance the actual story itself and I find those additions beneficial to the overall text and the story as well. This author makes a story from centuries ago easy to understand and relatable and it actually makes me interested in a life story that I didn't think I had any interest in learning about. I also find this to be an easy read and I'd be able to read it even if it wasn't a required class text. I'd recommend it to people in college and those who are not - expand your mind and enjoy the story.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
