Customer Reviews

Adams saga at its best
adams saga at its usual great standard if you follow the adams family stories you must read this book as it carries the tales of the family it to the sixties and brings back memories of what it was like to be alive during that time a must read

Good Insight Into Our Yesteryears
I loved reading this book and managed it in two days, it was that good. I loved reading about old SS/Nazi's creaping out of the woodwork and about when people started protesting against the killing of animals for the benefits of wearing fur.

It is also nice to read about the times my parents grew up in and learning that their attitude to music, was basically the same as mine.

Good interesting read.
