About the Author:

Among DAVE BARRY's recent bestselling books are his novels Big Trouble and Tricky Business; the nonfiction Dave Barry's Money Secrets; the two Peter Pan prequels, written with Ridley Pearson, Peter and the Starcatchers and Peter and the Shadow Thieves; and his Christmas story, The Shepherd, the Angel, and Walter the Christmas Miracle Dog.

From AudioFile:

Dave Barry is at his best when hes short and sweet, which is one reason to enjoy DAVE BARRYS HISTORY OF THE MILLENNIUM (SO FAR). Patrick Frederick is the latest in a line of readers of Barrys work, and perhaps the closest to Barrys tone. Frederick lets the humor flow naturally. This is an irreverent, deliberately misinformed history of civilization, unless Peter Minuit really did purchase Manhattan for $64 plus $167,000 a month in maintenance fees. Barry is brutal in his assessment of the Bush administration(s), all of them. But he doesnt spare the Democrats either. This is a perfect dose of Barrys oddball humor, which is great in small doses, say a couple hundred years at a time. M.S. � AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright � AudioFile, Portland, Maine
