Taj Mahal

What the authors did in the Epilog provides a very good way to get involved in the essence of the mausoleum dedicated to Mumtaz Mahal and should have been an introduction rather than an epilog.

Sherman: A Soldier’s Life

Lee Kennett, an emeritus professor from the University of Georgia had various reasons for taking a look at the life of William Tecumseh Sherman. Foremost, I suspect, was a desire to get to know the man who had caused such destruction to his home state during the Civil War.

This book adds much to Sherman’s Memoirs, filling in blanks that the general decided were not that important to the story he wanted to tell.

Nicholas Nickleby

Charles Dickens invented one of the most disreputable characters in literature with Wackford Squeers, the erstwhile master of Dotheboys boarding school. Another arch villain that emerged from Dickens’ fertile mind was Ralph Nickleby.

Crime and Punishment

Fyodor Dostoevsky had three “R’s” in mind when he began Crime and Punishment; and they weren’t readin’, writin’ and ‘rithmetic. Rather they were the alliterative name of his protagonist: Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov.

Daring Young Men

Richard Reeves added the Berlin Airlift to his many investigative books. He provides names and places to add to the informative nature of his look at how the Allies fed the residents of Berlin after the Soviets decided to blockade the city.

Dracula

Even though Bram Stoker is only a memory his seminal work about a Transylvanian Count has entered the realm of iconic names, dates and places.

The story is undoubtedly familiar to most if not all movie goers, but the book is probably not quite on the tip of the tongue as is the movie. Some readers will imagine Bela Lugosi as the evil Count. Others will see any of the countless portrayers of the man from Transylvania.

The Moonstone

Wilkie Collins wanted to be as famous as his contemporary Charles Dickens, but as with many unfulfilled aspirations the latter was raised to the heavens to become a star in the literary world while Collins had to be content to be a successful author.
