Another book that I found and that I highly enjoyed. Seems to be really well researched and sourced.

This is an amazing book that tells the story of Robert Moses. Brilliant, power hungry, a great and terrible human being. Highly recommend.

Rode the big aluminum tube over to Europe today and read this on the plane.

I’ve had this book on my nightstand for years and I’m finally reading it. The story of this guy and his accumulation of power of the years is absolutely amazing.

Decided to read this one after ‘Mark Twain’ to cleanse the palate. Fun book.

This is a great book by a fantastic author. Incredibly researched. A brilliant writer, a bit of of a tragic story. Take the time to read this one.

I haven’t updated the book list lately but I am still reading. I picked up ‘Mark Twain’ by Ron Chernow. Loving the book but for me it’s another slow read.

I just received Ryan Holiday’s reading list for July and see a couple of more that I will add to the list shortly.

What’s interesting, for me at least, about reading is that I can blast through some books in hours…and some not so much. Obviously that is related to the time available, the topic of the book, etc. I need to set aside some time a few times a week in the early evening to knock off a few pages rather than waiting until I hit the sack.

Regardless of that I’m reading 3 different books and will at least one finished shortly.

This, as is the first book, “The British are Coming”, is fantastic. I’m always amazed at the intense struggle that both sides went through.
