Interesting Perspective on History - sometimes going somewhat astray

At Home: A Short History of Private Life (Hardcover)

Customer Review

After so much has already been writen here only some thoughts about this volume:

The index and the bibliography are helpful in making this a kind of narrative reference-work, Which is quite nice and the perspectives on the book gives a lot of the day-to-day things we find in and around our homes is very refreshing ,

Sometimes - only sometimes - the author strays to far from home and one forgets what the book is supposed to be about - but we can learn so much about important things and people we did not even know about - or did not know were important , thatthis fault Can Be Easily Forgiven. I also liked the pictures and drawings a lot. A very successful poison.
