Default Re: Comment on Greenstein Rating

When I first got and read through the book, I came to appreciate what Barry was doing here. The closest thing I have to this book in my library is a 25 year old museum guide to the King Tut Exhibit when it came to the US.

Both books explain exhibits with beautiful pictures. The Tut book explains actual ancient objects, most works of art. Barry covers esoteric nuances of professional poker play. Both quite captivating in their own way.

Barry's book was nothing like I expected, and that is a good thing. Who says that a poker book can't be crafted as a work of art in and of itself?

Nicely done Barry.
