I finally finished a book that has taken me more than three weeks to read, mainly due to the amount of time that I have in being able to read.
Sadly as I write this I don't remember the authors name! And it's only been a day!
The book I think was called 1000 years of annoying the French, I must say that the author has done a very good job and it shows in the depth of detail in the contents of this book.
What was an eye opener for me was the way history is taught and remembered has a lot to do with where your are and the culture that you find yourself in.
I learnt a lot about history that I thought I already knew, this book turns some of what I was taught at school on it's head, it also taught me that having an open mind is alway worth having and also to question what you think is fact.
