Book Review #3 - History's Worst Decisions by Stephen Weir









 
 

 







The book in question deals with the foolishness done by people throughout history. At times reading this book can be extremely frustrating. Not because there is anything wrong with the book. The subject matter just makes you wonder how these people managed to screw up the lives of so many people, in many cases causing 100 000’s or millions of deaths. The author mostly writes in a factual manner but occasionally when he writes about his opinion on what has happened it adds in some extra life and spices the writing up. The book is good for anyone wanting to familiarize themselves with some history without knowing all that much as a starting point. It’s an interesting read but it could use some more life to it to make it really interesting.

Score : 6.5 / 10
