    Couldn't sleep for the rest of the night

    This book was outstanding. It's very interesting in a way that it's demented, disturbing and just all out scary. I bought this book because I saw the cover and it looked very intriguing. I love history and was interested to know more about some important people.
    However, reading this book continuously in one sitting is a terrible idea because it leads to a mental breakdown, especially reading about the section that has to do with WWII and the holocaust, the people involved and i guess just the 20th century itself. The pictures are very daunting and still bother me a month after reading it. I had trouble sleeping after reading this book because it's death after death after poisoning after rape and etc. This is not for the weak minded. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

    Overall, it is a very interesting book and for those who like torture and torment this is the book for you. but again...beware of the conscience consequences.

    History's Monsters

    I was somewhat put off in buying this book because of the cover seeming to be sensational. However, after several quick read-throughs I decided to buy it. I have found it to be very historically accurate, which is of the utmost importance to me, and I like the balance that the author has chosen: presenting the facts but adding just the slightest touch of humor or sarcasm without dishonoring the person he is writing about. The artwork/photographs are outstanding, the quality of paper is excellent, the length of each article is appropriate and balanced with long and short writings throughout the book.
