Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 425
Creedence Clearwater Revival is one of the most important and beloved bands in the history of rock, and John Fogerty wrote, sang, and produced their instantly recognizable classics: "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising", "Born on the Bayou", and more. Now he reveals how he brought CCR to number one in the world, eclipsing even the Beatles in 1969. By the next year, though, Creedence was falling apart; their amazing, enduring success exploded and faded in just a few short years.

In which Daniel Waterhouse, fearless thinker and courageous Puritan, pursues knowledge in the company of the greatest minds of Baroque-era Europe -- in a chaotic world where reason wars with the bloody ambitions of the mighty, and where catastrophe, natural or otherwise, can alter the political landscape overnight.

This book does a great job of presenting Issac Newton and the royal society as a work of fiction. I am unsure how closely Neal follows actual history, but it is very insteresting regardless. The book does some rambling but manages to build up to plot peaks regularly.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 20
Horace Porter served as lieutenant colonel on Ulysses S. Grant's staff from April 1864 to the end of the Civil War. He accompanied Grant into battle in the Wilderness, Cold Harbor, and Petersburg campaigns, and was present at Lee's surrender at McLean's house. Throughout the war, he kept extensive notes that capture Grant's conversations, as well as his own observations of military life.

Revisado: 11-30-09
The subject matter and flow of the book is good. It seems well researched compared to other works in the same vein. My problems was that the narrator is trying to read very fast, and for me it just doesn't work.
