Book Review: A Magnificent Catastrophe by Edward J. Larson
October 20, 2021
For The KingFTK
I am not including this book review in my monthly book review episode because there is far too much to interact with. To do this book justice I needed to create a longer episode exposing some of the helpful things it gets into. I hope you learn something and walk away with some thoughts whether you agree or not!
