Think we talked about The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, i still have that in hard cover and paperback...and The Longest Day..have boxes of books in the attic...my favs were political thrillers and crime drama...my all time fav is The Day of the Jackal by Frederick Forsyth, still have that one with rubber bands holding it together...read other books by him but that was the best.
Last book i read was The Da Vinci Code, very good..movies of books always fail, except maybe The Godfather and The Exorcist...
Read the da vinci code. I enjoyed figuring out the clues, the round church, aka the temple church, for one. Will marshall buried there. Was obvious to me tho that he had written the book with a movie in mind.
The godfather movie was helped by puzo writing the script.

As for history, i was always interested in british history. But i have expanded over the years. i have a book guaranteed to cure insomnia. 'The history of europe'. It is booooring.
