Protect And Defend...Vince Flynn. Rush was talking about how he couldn’t put it down so I said what the hay.
Very good book!

LOL!
Dawkins is at his weakest, btw, in his argument that all who question the origins of life should have no more issues once they've had their consciousness raised by evolution. I still haven't seen any evidence, for OR against, a prime mover/"creator."
In other words, I am neither fully convinced by the atheists or the believers at this time, although I lean more towards to former than the latter.

I just finished Gordon Rhea’s series on Grant’s 1864 Overland Campaign; The Wilderness, Spotsylvania Court House, North Anna River & Cold Harbor. As a follow-up I am about half way through Noah Trudeau’s “The Last Citadel; The Siege of Petersburg.”
After that, it’s on to “Team of Rivals” which discusses the political intrigue in Lincoln’s Cabinet.

and
The Holy Bible for living.

I’d like to add Morison’s full set to my library some day. I only have the one-volume edition, which reads like the “Cliff Notes” of the naval war.

Won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in '93 but I don't like the literary style of it. Oftentimes verbless.

I get an opportunity to boast!!
I just finished “War and Peace”...something I had promised myself to do for a long time. I guess I was intimidated by the length, but I shouldn’t have. It was as good as they get. (Only last 2-3 chapters a bit boring).
We had TIVOed “John Adams”, watched that last week, and that motivated me to read “1776” by David McCullough. ‘Have read 8 pages so far.
‘Great to see these other titles posted, and think we should have an award for everybody who reads “Atlas Shrugged.”
