- Über meine Bibliothek
- My library is a work in progress as I don't think I'll ever have all the books I want...It's a good deal of history, most of it in some form or another modern, and now that I've finished tagged I know what I've got. There's a sprinkling of other topics as well, including some ancient history, some politics, literature, and some reference material. Trying to collect a fair chunk of the Penguin Classics library--not always the best translations of some of the major foreign works, but they're common, cheap, and usually reliable, so they appear quite frequently. Current recommendation: Winston Churchill's History of WWII--amusing, well-written, literary classics that are also a decent history of the events they cover (if slightly biased)...absolute must-haves!
- Über mich
- I'm a St. Mary's College (of MD) grad with a degree in history--mostly modern European political history and American history of any period. Just started grad school at American University in foreign policy, so whenever I get around to adding my textbooks to the list, that'll become apparent...though sadly the days of me reading for fun are all but over until I finish this degree.
