Culpeper's Complete Herbal & English Physician
It was very beneficial to me, because I'm writing a novel that is set in the eighteenth century, and I need to know the herbal remedies used in that time period. Having this around will save me a lot of time in research.

The Czar's British squadron

Average review score:

Unbelievable-but it is history and it's true!
This is the type of history that you won't read in history books and as a layman in military history, I have to say I have been completely brought "about-face" to the realities of WWI--especially the British-Russian Armored car Squadron of the Royal Navy--this would be the "other" heroic story we didn't read about after "Lawrence of Arabia"--so it should be "Oliver of Russia". There should be a sequel with the "rest of the story".

Memories of Moscow, 1903
Imagine time-traveling with a smart gentleman who is energetic, enthusiastic, sociable, and just happened to have lived there 'then.' This is the seamless, appropriately elaborate, and richly detailed adventure one experiences in reading this book. Troyat called this book a mere "sentimental promenade,' but he was much too modest. Biographer of Flaubert, Tolstoy, Chekhov, Elizabeth I and others, he had a pre-Revolutionary Russian early childhood, and the recollections of his (refugees-to-France) family members. In this book he enthusiastically and carefully recreates the sights, sounds, smells of daily life. The peasantry, workers and their everpresent sufferings and struggles, commerce, law, food, the gentry, the tsar and his retinue, social life, the hapless serfs, plus plans, hopes, and dreams. The chapter "Moscow's Many Faces" is reminiscence, and very informative. The research is the backbone of this work, which is greatly enriched and informed by Troyat's emotional ties to -- and sensory recall of -- the time and place.

Smart advice, no lawyer jokes.
When I was divorced last year and had to find a lawyer for the first time, this book saved me lots of frustration (and probably lots of time and money). It's very useful -- and it's even fun to read. The author's one smart guy. Everyone ought to have this book handy, because sometime, everyone has to hire a lawyer for something. Don't do it without this book.

I love this book. Reccomend it to anyone. Enjoy!
