Title: Not a historical novel
Review: I like history a lot; I even read history books for fun sometimes. I don't know what it was about this book, but I found it very dry, and it could not capture my attention. It is exceedingly easy to put down. I learned a few interesting facts, but had very little fun along the way. I wish the author could have conveyed better what it FELT like to live in the year 1000, maybe along the lines of James Michener....I think it would be easier to enjoy and retain the information presented. The book did leave me feeling grateful to be here at the year 2000, instead of at the title year. I say to Mr. Lacey, spice it up!
