I will look into those books. I've read Eye of the Needle, it is very good. Two of Follett's books I like also are The Key to Rebecca and Triple. Have you ever read 'The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich' by William Shirer? I really liked that one.
Hey, CharlieI just finished 'In Harms Way'. I really liked it. If you have any good WWII books, let me know.
3 Nights in August - EXCELLENT baseball story, one of the best I've read. Enjoy!
Thanks Charlie, means of Ascent I loved, but never tagged (it was in a book set called "Master of the Senate"). Great stuff, we'll never know a president like we did with LBJ. "The Great Bridge" is one of my all time favorites. Right after reading it I started down three paths; I read everything from David McCollough, I started reading bridge books and books about historical NY. How about that for starting some fires! Have a good week. Dave
charlie,Thanks for the input on the Dark Tower series, I have looked at it a few times,but can't seem to decide if I want to start it or not.The Cubs/Cards book sounds pretty cool, not a bg fan of Tony's but Ithink I will check it out.If you like thrillers you should check out John Connolly.Take care,Robert
Charlie. I just looked at your to read list. Here are a bunch that you should move to the top of the list. I wrote a review on most of them on my shelf: manhunt, His Excellency, The Long Walk, Undaunted Courage, The Book Thief, Personal History, The Road, Peace Like a River, A Reporter's Life, T.Rex, Parting the Waters, Snakehead. Give me a few days, I'll go back to your list and point out some dogs... no thief like a bad book! Take care, Dave
doesn't come out for a while but i came across this book that looks interesting.Negotiauctions: New Dealmaking Strategies for a Competitive MarketplaceHere's a link with a preview:http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/6256.html
Just finished reading Heartsick by Chelsea Cain, is the second book worth picking up?I enjoyed the first,but so much of the story was in flashback about his torture that I felt I missed some easy clues to the current case.What do you think ?
Hey CharlieI bought 'In Harms Way' after your recommendation but I haven't started it yet. I'll have to finish one of my other non-fiction books before I start it. I don't like to have more than two non-fictions going at the same time. I'll let you know what I think when I finish it.
Tony Hillerman is ok, friends are nuts about him. I think its more the american indian folkore thats of interest, plots are pretty thin.
Thanks for the recommendation. I will put it on my to be read shelf. It sounds interesting and I have heard about that incident that 'In Harm's Way' is about. It is relevant for me because one of my father's ships, the U.S.S. Northampton, was sunk at the battle of Guadalcanal.Also, please accept my friendship request.
The Apocalypse Watch is on my list to read . . . not sure when!
Hey Charlie - How was 'The Apocalypse Watch?'
Charlie, thanks for the post, glad you like my movie characters, after I compiled that list, I realized they tend a bit to the dark side. Great Groucho Marx quote above, was re-watching Marx bros movies earlier in the spring. I think they were way ahead of their time. Bill
After John Wooden, Vince Lombardi is one of my heroes . . . terrific book choice!
