Compartmentalized by theme, I am reading: ...Thanks for the ping, Gamecock! These look pretty good.

I've read this one as well.
I found myself having to write down the Russian names(w/ranks and armies they lead) on a piece of paper in order to keep everyone straight. For some reason I can keep the German names straight, but Russian ones keep me on my toes....I think it all of the "y's & z's"... ;)
On a side note, it is good to hear from a fellow PoliSci major. I was a PoliSci/Econ double-major for undergrad....and then MBA.

The Wild Swans by Jung Chang
Thre generations of Chinese women in in the political maelstrom of China during the 20th century.
The author, born in 1952, left China in 1978 and her discovery
of the culture of freedom in Great Britain, is extraordinary. Her mother, a revolutionary who married one of Mao's soldiers; and her grandmother, concubine to a warlord are a microcosm of the horror and heartbreak of the past hundred years in that country.
It's surely not a speed read, but it was an important period of history and the narrative is fascinating.
