The latest from L.E. Modsitt, Jr in the Imager series (it looks like it is the last book of the pre-sequel portion of the series). I also have gone back to Recluce and am finishing up the "wellsprings of chaos" and "ordermaster". Tom A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association). |

Couldn't download it, George. However, David McCullough's treatment of US History is a bit sugary. Ref., also, Howard Zinn's, "A People's History of the United States". No punches pulled. |

Thanks for this Jim. The BBC series is not sugary! |

Thanks for this Jim. The BBC series is not sugary! Could you point me to the "The BBC" series? I could use some more reading. Thank you. Tom A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association). |

I've just downloaded the Kindle version of The Curse of Oak Island: The Story of the World’s Longest Treasure Hunt. The author, Randall Sullivan, has coordinated with the Laginas (the brothers digging up the island) to write this book. The TV show fascinates me. Treasure or no treasure, the history and archaeology are very interesting. ~Sue~ |

An eBook from John Grisham called "Partners". It is a pre-squel to "Rogue Lawyers" I think. Tom A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association). |

Well it’s a audiobook. “Have Spacesuit Will Travel.†I am editing the file into 15 minute blocks. I don’t want to hunt through 8 plus hours of story to find where it left off last. |

What format? Just curious because anything other than a CD should pick up from where you left off. MP3. I’m making a cd for my car. So I can listen to it on the way to and back from work. Sometimes the player forgets the last stop and starts over. |
