1.		America's Queen: The Life of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $10.88 Customer Review: This was a great book - it was packed with information. Sometimes it had a little bit too much detail in certain sections and it got a little bit boring. Overall, it was really interesting and I was glad that it was so well written as opposed to a quick read that leaves you with more questions.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

2.		Lucrezia Borgia: Life, Love, and Death in Renaissance Italy from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $12.80 Customer Review: I think the main thing I came away with after reading this is that Lucrezia Borgia, she of rampant rumors of poisoning, incest and other sins, was not nearly as interesting as historians have generally made her out to be! That's actually a compliment to the author, in a way, thanks to her... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		Diana from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $12.80 Customer Review: I have read several Diana biographies and too much of the time it's a simple rehash of stories and moments already told. Sarah Bradford's bio is a breath of much needed fresh air. I think it's the definitive biography on Princess Diana's life. At times you feel for her and at others you are left in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

5.	[no image]	The Reluctant King: The Life and Reign of George Vi, 1895-1952 from St Martins Pr Customer Review: I stumbled on this at the library and was soon engrossed. It is extremely interesting to see behind the stiffness of royalty, and to get another angle on the Abdication scandal, as well as World War II, the King's relationship with Roosevelt (and the delightful details about the King's visit to... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.	[no image]	The Grand American Avenue 1850-1920 from Pomegranate Customer Review: This is a very good book on a most deserving subject. I especially liked the section on Galveston's Broadway, but all of the avenues are most derserving. I really was not familiar with some of the avenues like Cleveland's Euclid, so it was fascinating to see how grand this street was and sadly how... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

8.		Elizabeth: A Biography of Britain's Queen from Riverhead Trade Customer Review: Unfortunately, I read the 1996 version of this superlative biography, but doing so offered some unsettling glimpses of the times to come for The Queen and her clan. This is a surprisingly even-handed biography which neither exploits nor glosses over the troubles in the House of Windsor, and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.		Rise of the New York Skyscraper: 1865-1913 from Yale University Press Price: $31.92 Customer Review: This book really has to be considered a failure, for although it is full of great old photographs, just reading a single paragraph is like listening to Ben Stein in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". Typical of a dry academic treatise. Still, there are so few books out there on the subject... it is... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
