Book Reviews of The Swan King, Ludwig II of Bavaria
Book Review: Interesting topic
Summary: 3 Stars
I had read previous reviews that this was one of the best biographies on Ludwig II. While the information is quite thorough and it gives some good insight to Ludwig's character (such as why a grown man would have commissioned such beautiful, fairy-tale like castles complete with pictures from such stories), it was a bit dry to read. I think the subject matter and research is very complete, I just wished it was presented in a more fluid style.
