DESCRIPTION:
Exactly as Described - Worth the Investment Jason Ilgenfritz I am not a huge fan of William Makepeace Thackeray but I wanted to read Barry Lyndon in order to compare the source material to what was visualized by Stanley Kubrick on-screen. This was the MOST cost-effective way to do that. For this, it was definitely worth the price of admission. This has not made me a Thackeray fan. But it has allowed me enlightenment into Kubrick and Thackeray's Barry Lyndon.. Stephen C. Rose said Three Easy Pluses. This collection was free. That is a plus. You can toggle among the books which is also a plus. What I found is that the man is funny and able to hold attention. These days that is a definite plus.
