"I'm armchair traveling NM and wanted to get a nice view of it. This book has and old view by major authors of their time and it gives you a mixed view of NM. I'll be reading more books on the subject so I can get the beautiful view I want instead of the disappointing real view most authors gave. Even though they probably are true from the people I tell I'd like to see for myself."
