In my mailbox and on my front porch I received many surprises. I already told you about my other purchases, but to keep it all together I may be repeating myself ...please forgive me. The memory is the first to go they tell me.

School Books
16.The Good War, by Studs Terkel
17.The Flags of Our Father, by James Bradley...I've already read this one. If you haven't read it I highly recommend it.

All I can say is....I think that should keep me busy for a while. My school books are for my grad courses this summer. One is Civil War, the other one is World War II.

I'll stop by to check to see what everyone else got. Happy reading.

  2. A course on WWII...that sounds interesting. Hope you enjoy your new books. I read Drowning Ruth years ago. I don't remember much of the story, just that I found it interesting.
