Rachel Reviews: The History of Islam from the Beginning to the Present by Christoff Namel
It is difficult for me to write a review of this book based purely on its content; not because it's reprehensible or confronting or difficult to understand but because I didn't feel like there was a lot of it, which is a strange thing to say about a 50,000 word book.

I Quit My Six-Figure Job to Work at a Bookstore
I Quit My Six-Figure Job to Work at a Bookstore. I've Never Been Richer. When I walked into my boss's office and handed in my resignation, I could feel the weight of the decision pressing down on me. I was leaving a six-figure salary, benefits, and a career path that many would envy. On paper, I had everything most people strive for—success, financial security, the approval of my peers.

At this time in history, there were no Laws to protect the children, and the NSPCC, (the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children), was in its infancy, (it was founded in 1884 as the London Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children).
