Title: Am I the only one who disliked this book?
Review: I love books about books and book dealers. And after the glowing reader reviews here, I had to order this book. But I practically had to force myself to finish it.It seems to be nothing more than a collection of unconnected war stories, most of them meant to show how much smarter Everitt was than the rest of humanity. It is very dated and his comments about minorities are jarring, even taking into consideration that he lived in a different time.Everitt clearly prided himself on being a cantankerous old grouch and after 265 pages, frankly I was glad to be rid of him.
Is the review positive or negative?
