What to read?

[where did my id go?]

Caesar - The Civil War
and
The Gallic Wars

But treat it like the electoral propaganda it is.

But treat it like the electoral propaganda it is.

Indeed, that is one of the more interesting things, not the dates of battles etc, but the political purpose and struggle between the main players.

Two thousand years ago, the human condition was very similar to the present day.

[The Lone Gunman]

Wolf of the Plains by Conn Iggulden

Finished that last week.
Enjoyed it but got a bit fed up with constant references to black eirag and salty tea.

Now reading "The Book Thief"

Fave book "When the Star Kings Die"

[The Professor]

Good read

Try "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom - cracking little book. It's food for the soul.

Nasty man.

Tch, that is one book where the editor should have done quite a bit more work.
