Well the library...had only three books of War and Peace *sobs* two of the three were Constance whats her name. But they did have one of the Norton Critical Edition of it and the translations are based on "The Maude Translation"
Actually sat there and compared Constance's translations with the Maude Translation...and I wanted to hurl at Constance's translations...They were just yucky...choppy and grammatically weird.
So I guess I was left with the Maude Translations. So far it seems to be pretty good. :)
