This is a great book. It is not unlike driving by a train wreck. It's ghoulish and I find myself thinking I shouldn't be looking, but I can't help it!
The author of this book has a great sense of humor and entertaining writing style. The introduction is a warning, that if you don't have theguts for gore, you shouldn't read the book.
How to encite the curious, or what?!
The author says:
Remember when you watched Bambi for the first time and you got to the part where Bambi's mom dies? And the sweet movie about a family of deer turns into a horror flick? |What the heck was that?" you thought. And in that second ou realized that if Bambi's mom can do, so can everybody else.
How They Croacked is like reliving Bambi's mom's death over and over again. Except it's worst because it's the blood, sweat, and guts of real people. In this book are the true stories of how some of the most important people who ever lived - died.
The author tells the endings of King Tut, Julius Ceasar, Cleopatra, Christopher Columbus, Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, Pocahontas, Galileo Galilei, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Marie Antoinette, George Washington, Napoleon Bonaparte, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Dickens, James A Garfield, Charles Darwin, Marie Curie, and Albert Einstein.
You've got to read this one!
