Informative and Amusing

I got this book as a present, and I'm glad that I did. The writer mixes in British and non-British (though naturally there are more of the former), and manages to entertain as well as inform. His rather wry descriptions of disasters are good fun to read, as well as presenting good information about the subject. Thoroughly recommended.
