Afterword and Suggested Reading
This pretty much puts a finish to an eight-month project. Publius, thanks, and thanks to all the Book Club members for their support. ;-)
Nice job, guys.
When your book comes out I'll be sure to buy it. I'm sure that'll mean a re-read of Atlas Shrugged. The recommendation of Asimov's Foundation trilogy is one I think I'll take up. I've read a good deal of Asimov over the years but somehow I've managed to never get to that one, though I've heard a great deal about it.
I've gotten much, much more out of my reading of Atlas Shrugged because of you guys. Thanks.
back later
Thanks
Regards
