Reviews
Useful information but contrived old English
3By Max_higginbothamLots of useful information but the use of thy and thou gets horribly old and is used in a lazy fashion. The author thinks this is possible as old English because he uses thou a million times. Next time please just write in standard EnglishThe richest man in Babylon.
