Was Thomas Cromwell the original Josh Lyman? Definitely the original (well, that's arguable, but deal with the turn of phrase) political badass, that's for sure. This is a big, intelligent blanket of a book that (while admittedly getting a little laggy at times) creates history right there on the page and makes it more interesting than any traditional biography could ever be.http://wp.me/pGVzJ-eJ
