Amazon Customer: This is a great lil quirky history book. Perfect gift for someone who appreciates life off the beaten path. As the title suggests, if you are easily offended by language or have no sense of sarcasm, this book is probably not for you.

Staci: Personally, I love history and what we can learn from it. But also find a lot of history books to be overly wordy, with very narrow viewpoints and basically really boring. Totally not the case with this book… wonderfully written with facts as well as humor and full of stories that appealed to the rebel in me. Plus, I learned all these great tidbits that I can pepper into conversations.

Matthias Schmolze: The best *you-know-the-word* book. I love it.... That's what history is really about and how we should learn from it. Take a seat in your Armchair. Open up an old scottisk whiskey. Light up A cuban cigar and read it. Perfect evening....
