      Frank R. Stockton’s The Vizier of the Two-Horned Alexander is a breezy, fun yarn about a man who's lived about three thousand years. It is not quite a novel. But it is well-written and entertaining.Highly recommended. Amusingly, though it deals with Moses and Joshua, it skirts Jesus and the disciples and apostles and all that. As such it is ... careful.
