I'm about halfway through "player piano" by Vonnegut right now... really enjoying it so far.
Also just finished the Holy Grail series by Bernard Cornwell. Next on the list is Settling Accounts: Return Engagement by Harry Turtledove (it's an alternate history book... good stuff for history/polisci buffs) |

Just finished the Rise and Fall of the Great Powers by Paul Kennedy and am now wading through The Life and Times of Pancho Villa by Fredrich Katz (all 900 pages of it).

For Revolutionary War era, 1776 by McCullough is also very good and a quick read. |

It's obvious by the first few pages, that the title is to incense people who won't even bother to open the cover to see what the content is actually about. I think my track record of opinion here makes it obvious I am far from condoning man-hating. I in fact, think men get a bad rap most of the time as compared to women. |
