Book excerpt: Well Researched and Fascinating Historical Read"The saying: "History repeats itself" has once again presented itself a true statement, in this impressive fascinating well written account by authors/historians Benjamin Brown and K.L Morgan of 20 ancient civilization rulers from the time period and to the nineteenth and twentieth century. Many ancient rulers admired and respected for their greatness and noble character. As the kingdoms and boundaries grew larger and "absolute power" led to political corruption, unrest, and at times terror. The ruling class leaders, emperors, kings and queens sought the purity and or preservation of family bloodlines, this led to incest and inbreeding. The ancient Roman Empire is where some of the most powerful brilliant respected rulers emerged, and it eventually collapsed entirely from centuries of maniacal, vicious, tyrannical rule from insane despots."- Michel Short, Amazon ReviewA very well written book with reports that are well researched, well written and written in an non sensational way and in many cases sympathetic manner.- Rod, Amazon Review UKThis book is about the lives and times of twenty insane rulers; from warlords to emperors, queens to military commanders, they have displayed unique capacities for sadism, cruelty and in some cases, genuine madness and insanity.
