Amazing Tome - Wish I Had it Before Now
I've been looking for this series for a long time now. Condensed stories of the best literature. The binding and paper quality are outstanding too. Always makes for a more enjoyable read when the printer really put some thought into binding. Not to mention the stories are far more varied and interesting than you take away from the cover.
Great Book
Love this series of Books...
I think the title throws a lot of readers though. More might buy it if it was called something else.
Not just for the bathroom
I bought volume III at a resale shop and my interest was piqued. There HAD to be Volume I and II and maybe IV or more.
I ordered I and II and just love these books. I have read so much in my life that I have forgotten, so these are great "refreshers" .
The "bathroom" titles put me off a bit...yeah, I read there too, but these are nice enough for display anywhere. I read them whenever I have a few minutes to myself,at lunch, waiting in the car, etc. The selections are excellent. These are better than Cliff Notes. I recommend these to anyone.
Everyone should have the whole set
Okay - Where else are you going to be able to read The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand in 5 minutes? Granted, you lose some of the nuances, and finer details which often times make a book a novel, but if you haven't read these classics, don't really have the time to read the whole novel, and you feel you've missed out as a result -- then this lexicon of classics is for you.
GABB has listings for everything from religions to quotations to one-sitting readings of classic summaries.
Highly recommended.
Great American Bathroom Book II
Great precis (plural) of books/plays some of which I had already read, many I had not.
