Can I just say that I am not a huge fan of LexisNexis. I am not sure why I had difficulties with this database, but we did not get along so great. As for Successive Fraction Search it takes getting used to, but I like the results you can get.

I picked Cleopatra by Michael Grant.

I chose this book because I am a amateurhistorical researcher and I love to study up on ancient figures. I have done some pretty extensive personal research on Cleopatra, but I have never read this particular biography. It had excellent reviews and caught my attention by the the title. I can't wait to read this book and see if I can learn anything new!
