A review by logdog42
The Royal Art of Poison: Filthy Palaces, Fatal Cosmetics, Deadly Medicine, and Murder Most Foul by Eleanor Herman

dark informative reflective tense medium-paced

5.0

This was wonderfully written, and so captivating! It reads as a short story collection, but one that is incredibly morbid. I learned so much about poison, history, olde european culture, and all of the ways that people ruin themselves!
  I think this book is great for anyone who wants to learn about poison, or the gross(often glossed over) parts of history.
