Recenzje

` ... the pamphlet succeeds admirably in setting out existing, and the author's own, interpretations of a man who, more than most, has been the subject of endless controversy. In itself, it may excite further controversy - and, in that, too, this lively and excellent pamphlet is well worthy of its subject.' - Social History Society
