War and Peace  – Usado

No one else has written of a young man’s first taste of battle, a young girl’s first taste of love, a young min’s first taste of ideas, or an old man’s taste of death as you will find them in these pages.

No novel has ever equalled its scope, its humanity, its penetrating exposures of the human spirit under stress. Never in any form has an artist revealed history and destiny as dramatically as Tolstoy does in this book.
