It's the book I ended up ordering for my father's birthday, and having arrived some days in advance of the birthday, I am reading a bit of it myself.

It's basically the original book with a lot of disclaimers and I think also some parts omitted, not quite sure yet.

It's a riveting story so far, you can feel it gripping you immediately and images of marching and saluting and frantic speeches appear in your mind. May intensify existential questions but I feel it will be an edifying read to better understand history.

No, unlike you I am a man of great precision and care in handling properties. I wash and dry my hands thoroughly and have a special technique in handling the turning of the pages and opening the book no more than 90 degrees to keep the spine intact.

You strike me as someone who is deeply depressed, always making very negative comments even on the most joyful and wholesome of events, seemingly PARTICULARLY on such. Trying to inflict your misery on others, and feeding off their happiness vicariously.

As I read about his parents, I think about why there was high childhood mortality in those days. The ruling class wants us to believe that it's due to the lack of the wonders of pharmacology, but I think it was just because of rampant inbreeding.
