Useful and inexpensive There is not much that can be said of a work such as this other than if it is affordable and provides good usage. This book does both. The title describes the work completely. It is a collection of quotes. It is organized in order of the last name of the person to whom the quote is attributed. When all is said and done, that is not a very helpful scheme unless you already know the quote and already know the author but I cannot think of another scheme that would prove useful. When looking for something, you just wade in, browse and hope to hit paydirt. The price of this work actually aids in its usability. It is by no means a comprehensive work but does have plenty of material. That means that it is fairly easy to browse through. I much more thorough treatment would be greatly lengthened and would drive up the price. This is a useful work.
