WORTH CONSUMING!

As indicated in the subtitle, The Professor and the Madman is “a tale of murder, insanity, and the making of the Oxford English Dictionary.” It is one of the best biographies I have ever read. It is a human story of forviveness, redemption, collaborative effort and colossal achievement.
