The good, the bad and the unready - Robert Easton

The Good , the Bad and the Unready is the perfect book for discovering how one man could be both Charles the Scourge of God and Charles the Affable. Or who exactly it was that Vlad impaled. Or how some eighteen people earned the appellation the Great (and thats not including Anthony the Great Bastard and Anne the Great Whore). Or why Joan the Mad never went anywhere without her husbands corpse.The Reverend Robert Eastons irreverent guide to the most peculiar nicknames of history gives brief, funny biographies of not just the Good, the Bad and the Unready, but also the Shaggy, the Worthless, the Silly, the Elephant, the King of Slops and many more. Everybody history remembers for being blessed or, more often, cursed with a memorable moniker.
