Books

Another batch of books read:

• "A Nation Rising: Untold Tales of Flawed Founders, Fallen Heroes and Forgotten Fighters From America's Hidden History" by Kenneth C. Davis - An interesting set of narratives about little known, but important, episodes of America's history in the first half of the 19th century.
  


• "The Silent War: The Cold War Battle Beneath the Sea" by John P. Craven - Mr. Craven has done some amazing things (assuming the book is true). However, I don't agree with this position on "outing" people and possibly classified information.
  


• "A Small Place In Italy" by Eric Newby - the original "A Year in Provence"
