In cautarea timpului pierdut. Joi, 27 septembrie 2007. Am copilărit în Bucureşti, dar nu mai aveam nici o proprietate.

http://nicksternet.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
My pronouncements and denouncements! Wednesday, November 3, 2010. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. Excellent new biography of George Washington. If you have already read biographies of Washington, you still may not know the man! Newly published letters in the last 20 years have been used by Chernow in this biography! And Chernow is a beautiful writer! Easy to read, but not dummied down. Rich, literary language used throughout! The same illustrations that are used in other dime a dozen bios are used here!
