<<A World Lit Only By Fire" Wm Manchester. I have already recommended this once. This is a second and stronger recommendation. Please don't make me stoop to twisting your arm, Christine.>>

I had this book collecting dust for years, and finally sold it to a second-hand bookstore, Michael, when I did a bit of spring cleaning this year. It looked like a very interesting book, but I somehow lost my concentration span after I had a baby, and still have not gotten it back enough to plow through really intellectual books. I think it will take NOT having a job before I am able to do this again, as my time is very limited.

Would you care to summarize its main points?
