Re: What book are you reading now...

I'm 10 pages away from finishing the Last Lion by William Manchester, which is a damned good book of the political scene of western Europe during the rise of Germany (in addition to being a good biography of Churchill). And of course in Manchester's usual manner, the narratives are just stunningly beautiful.

On deck is Reminiscences (First Edition!) by Douglas MacArthur, my hero! I already cracked it open and read the forward and the first chapter, actually. It's very nicely written especially for a soldier. But then of course, MacArthur wasn't your typical type of soldier, either.
