The Page 99 Test
Marshal Zeringue of the "Page 99 Test" blog recently set me an interesting challenge:
'I wonder if you might be interested in helping with a blog post that would tell readers more about Churchill's Empire [...]
The "test" is simple: Is Ford Madox Ford's statement "Open the book to page ninety-nine and read, and the quality of the whole will be revealed to you," accurate for your book?'
Here is what I wrote.
I also got this mention in the correspondence columns of the New Yorker.
