        . . . assuming you had already done so?  😉

        few years back.  thought it was very well done.

        I'm just surprised someone is as big of a geek as me.

              EUROPE: Glad to know it's do-able, been on my shelf for years, with another of his, about WWII. Meawhile, I've been reading some true adventure books, not that history isn't, one being GODFORSAKEN SEA by Derek Lundy, about a round-the-world one-man sailing race. With Giles's friend Ian's continuing onslaught of the seas, thought it may be of interest, then along comes this list today from the BY&N Review page: http://tinyurl.com/4y6r8cj

                                      i would have to sent something back. Probably cost as much as the book itself

                                        I ship for free so no need to ship anything back… But this might actually be easier:

                                          I'm currently reading 'Wherever You Go, There You Are' by Jon Kabat-Zinn.  It's about mindfulness meditation - something that I really need to incorporate into my life and which I finally feel ready for.

                                          Prior to that I (re) read 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People' by Stephen Covey, which is one of my 'life reference' books.

                                          Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds…
