This book is a 2004 biography about the life of Leonardo da Vinci.  So far, I am enjoying it.  I find the author’s writing enjoyable and I love his deconstruction of various references of earlier interpretations of da Vinci’s life and works.  Furthermore, he has a lot of good sources.

Until I come across a typo.  A couple of pages later, I came across another typo.  Oh dear.  This book leaves me in a bind.

UPDATE: Honestly, me criticizing another person’s writing makes me feel hypocritical.  I do not consider myself the best writer.  I am always nervous about releasing a post in my blogs.  Also, during my college years I have written papers with errors and have tried everything I could to make my writing better.  In short, writing remains an uphill battle for me.  Even now, I have come back to rewrite this post.  Furthermore, I go back to earlier posts to correct some mistakes and elaborate on ideas.  However, I am still going to review this book.
