Best book I've read in awhile was Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in
American History, by S.C. Gwynne. I'm in the middle of two books now, The Alice B. Toklas Cookbook, and Steinbeck's The Log From the Sea of Cortez
(for the third time). Next up is Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future, by Ashlee Vance. SFandH - 8-28-2017 at 06:19 PM

WW2 history with lots of action that actually happened...toronja - 8-29-2017 at 10:32 AM
Just finished two great autobiographies: "The Sound of Gravel," about a young gal raised in a polygamist cult in northern Mexico, and
"Every Falling Star," written by a young man orphaned and growing up on the streets in rural North Korea.
Both were eye-openers and page-turners and I highly recommend them.BajaMama - 8-29-2017 at 12:20 PM
