Title: Poor design makes this a shoddy book
Product review: If you're looking to buy a copy of Famous Men of the Middle Ages by John H. Haaren, don't buy this version!Although Rob Shearer is listed as one of the authors, his introduction is not in this book. The back cover copy is for a different book. The text was not formatted for pages of this size (if it was formatted at all), so captions for the pictures sometimes occur on the next page. The art appears plopped into the flow of the text almost randomly, and the copy quality of the art is poor: grainy and difficult to decipher the subject(s), even in the larger pictures. Altogether, a slipshod job.I was attempting to save a few dollars by buying this version, but in the end it's going to cost me more as I'm going to have to buy a different version, one with higher quality pictures and a more pleasing layout.
