An interesting read
I very much enjoyed '1434'. Like '1421' it questions the history that we've been taught at school. The book is informative and well researched. It is also well illustrated and contains some stunning maps and photos. Most striking perhaps are the comparative illustrations, showing the Chinese inventions, and the European copies from years later. These illustrations form the basis of the simple ...

Bardelys the magnificent (Adventure novel classic)
2 reviews
Rafael Sabatini
Hillman Periodicals, Inc
, 1924
Very early Sabatini, and it shows
Bardelys the Magnificent is a fairly good novel, one of Sabatini's earliest (my copy lists the copyright date as 1905). His writing isn't quite as polished as it would be later on and the story isn't told quite as smoothly as in other, later books. Still, it's a good and entertaining read. The Marquis de Bardelys is a court favorite of Louis XIII who is goaded into a wager that he can woo and ...
