Customer Reviews

This book, was very inspirational, and uplifting!

If your looking for a book with some sadness, some love, and some great poetry, you'll love this book. It also contains some history, which is kinda cool, because while I was reading this book, I was learning about great events in the worlds past without even realizing it! I'm going into my freshmen year of college now, and I hate to read educational things but this book, brought me the inspiration to write my own poetry, and it taught me a lot as well, which is always a plus in a book.
