Originally posted by TopHatterMy lovely Liberal has excellent taste in reading subjects
I'm currently re-reading several books, since I have not bought or checked out from the library anything new.
I think my next re-read will be The Arms of Krupp by William Manchester.
He biographies are so packed with minutae that I always pick up a few nuggets of new information the next time I read it.
I'm in the middle of "Blind Man's Bluff - The untold story of American submarine espionage" by Sherry Sontag and Christopher Drew
Another good read, where you will recognize many of the names mentioned and/or quoted.

I've got nothing new to read so I've started again on
Shackleton's Boat Journey by Frank Arthur Worsley
and
The Man Who Broke Napoleon's Codes: The Story of George Scovell by Mark Urban.
Next, A Near Run Thing by David Howarth which I started last year and then lost and re-found last month but thought I'd redo George Scovell first to get back in the mood.In the realm of spirit, seek clarity; in the material world, seek utility.
