One to dip into - By: A. Byrne, 18 Oct 2008
This is a perfect coffee table read ; one to dip into from time to time.

The format is obituaries published by various authorsin The Times. The result is a wide range of writing styles, sensitively & respectfully written.

This is an excellent book for those wishing to sample the Great Lives, perhaps with a view to whetting the appetite for more complete biographies.
