What Are You Reading Now?

It's been a number of years since I last posted this and recently decided to start doing this again.

As you know, I regard most Freepers to be very well-read individuals. I like to know what people are currently reading. it can be anything - a NY Times bestseller, a technical journal, a magazine you picked up at the grocery store, etc.

Please do not ruin this thread by posting "I'm reading This Thread". It's not that funny. Seriously.

I'll start...

I'm reading "Gettysburg: the Second Day" by harry W Pfanz. It's a deep book covering in extensive detail - yes you guessed it, the second day of the battle of Gettysburg. I just finished "Gettysburg: The First Day". I would not recommend either book for anyone looking for a good initial read on this battle but others may like it.

Well, what are you reading now?
