War and Peace
This was the second time that I have read War and Peace. I gained far more insight this time. This was not just a historical novel. It had great characters, fantastic depth in the events, and a philosophical point. It blended theology with philosophy as a means to explain the course of events in 1811, 1812, and 1813.
