Reader Reviews:
superb and revealing account (3/4 people found this helpful)
being puny of bicep, i waited eagerly for the paperback of this rave-reviewed analysis of the relationship between britain and france. i wish now i'd made the effort to go to the gym last year, and could have read it hot off the press. even for someone with a dilettante interest in history, it's a fascinating and insightful read with an undercurrent of gentle observational humour that illuminates the absurdities of diplomacy, politics and prejudice.
