I love history, and was once asked to not bring one of the books to work anymore

The old saying in the book publishing biz was: If you want to sell a loser, put a Swastika on the cover.

PC has probably made that ineffective.

What book did they ask you not to bring?

The book was “Knight's Cross, a Biography of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel”. Some were upset that I was reading a book about a German general from WWII.

Funny thing was, one of the Jewish guys from work thought it was an interesting read, and we would talk about it. But some thought it wasn't appropriate for a multi ethnic work environment.
