Jefe,
Just checking in to see if you have tackled any of these books and your thoughts, there were an awful lot of great works thrown out there for you.
-
I’ve jsut started reading Myths and Facts - A Guide to the Arab-Israeli Conflict. It’s very informative and helpful on the subject, especially because it includes information on events since 9/11.

i just read Slaughter House Five. good and funny book :)
-
Have to agree with you, Ewok. :wink:
As for books… I really suggest The Killer Angels (the book Gettysburg was based on). -
i suggest the book Red Storm Rising by Tom clancy about a possible world war 3. good book and very interesting
-
“How Few Remain” by Harry turtledove was a good book describing the world if the Confederate States of America had won the Civil War in 1862.
-
Interesting. I’ve always like “What-if” books, and since I’m a Civil War nut, this one is worth checking out. :)
-
I also like Harry Turtledove’s alt-history books. Unfortunately, he does have a series where WWII came out differently-no A&A, horror of horrors! :D
-
I just finished an excellent book, called “Life Of Pi”. It doesn’t seem to fit in with the other books that have been suggested here, but it’s a good one! Very good storytelling.
-
A book that i consider most remarkable:
“Destined to Witness” by Hans J. Massaquoi
(german title: Neger, Neger, Schornsteinfeger)have a look at

Highly reccomend Sam Tannenhaus’ biography Whittaker Chambers.I read TR Frehenbach’s This Kind of War (it’s about the Korean War)
every June for the last 4 years.I also reccomend, Stanley Karnow’s, Vietnam.
