Re: Favorite Authors / Books?

Yep, he says anyone with a so-called assault rifle is O.K. with him - as long as it's maximum magazine capacity is limited to five rounds.

Hhhmmm, what's wrong with this picture?

By the way, I read his book and really enjoyed it and admired him, until now...

Re: Favorite Authors / Books?

I'm currently reading Mark Twain's autobiography.

He insisted it not be published for 100 years after his death.

His sense of humor is timeless.

His wit is wholly contemporary.

I wish I'd known him...

For History: H.W. Brands
Stephen Ambrose
David McCullough

Brands biography of Benjamin Franklin is superb.

Ambrose's "Band of Brothers" is terrific and "Undaunted Courage" about the Lewis and Clark expedition was exceptional.

McCullough's biography of John Adams while outstanding left me admiring his wife Abigail even more than the President.
