I was originally made aware of this book when listening to Philip Adams interviewing its author on his Late Night Live program on Radio National. Adams comment that it was the best book he has read was enough for me to contact the Book Grocer to order a copy for myself and a couple for the family. Upon the books arrival I was a little daunted that it was over four hundred pages long. It only took a couple of pages to get past that. I found it a real pleasure, extremely educational and a page turner -right through to page 422. Winchesters mastery of the language is obvious in how his use of words and punctation make easy reading of the very long sentences he writes. Whilst the book highlights the role ownership of land has played in the disparity of wealth, he does not leave you without hope. I found him to be very objective in stating the good and bad of examples he used. This is a history lesson and provides the grist for a wake up call.

With a Maltese heritage I loved reading this book. I bought 12 and gave them out as Xmas Presents to all my Maltese Family members for holiday reading :)
This book of reminiscenses - 'The Girl from the Metropol Hotel' -
was first published in 2007 and Amor Towles' 'A Gentleman in Moscow' in 2016. Had 'The Girl from the Metropol Hotel' been translated from the Russian in time for Amor Towles to write his wonderful novel? Was this the story starter? Fascinating to contemplate.
This is an excellent book to learn about where motivation comes from and how to cultivate to achieve success in life
One of those books you can't put down but don't want it to finish. I will be purchasing all of Fiona Martin's novels!
Excellent book, have made several of the recipes and I am very happy with how easy and delicious the food is.
The variety of genres in the box was amazing, some of which we would never have thought to buy ourselves. A pity that some of the books were a bit crude in their language, and in one case spoilt the whole book.
Good book thank you and great condition. And thank you to The Book Grocer for very fast delivery and I would recommend buying from you
I’m working my way through all the outlander books finished voyage and halfway through drums
The books are amazing, such a brilliant author makes one feel like you’re actually there
I’m enjoying drums of autumn more than I did voyage I’ve already ordered the next book in the series Firey cross
I recommend buying from the Book Grocer for fast service and books is great condition
Looks good; a well-produced reprint of a classic from many years ago. Purchased it for a friend who is a serious golfer.
