Ended up... Hmm... I actually find it quite boring, LOL. First of all, this book was written in old English style. As such, is it hard to stay focus and readers might lost concentration while trying to digest each "madness". Besides, I personally found it too "long-winded" at times. Imagine, 100 over pages on each single topic and those topics are not something new to me. So, unless it is for the sake of historic detailing reason; I actually found it hard to concentrate.
Well, I appreciate the author's hard-work in presenting such a details historical stuff. But, from my own standpoint, this is a book that ONLY tells the story without presenting the author's personal thought. To make things worse, those presented stories are not really something new. To bookworm like me, the presented stories are too familiar and there is no "spark" and further excitement in reading it.
For a full rating of 10, I personally rate it at 4. Despite the dullness as mentioned above, we cannot discount the efforts done by the author in year 1841! For those who are new to the "madness" as presented, this could be the best choice of book to begin with...As for me; it is not really my cup of tea at the moment, LOL...
