Comments on: My Year in Books http://www.chrispramas.com/2009/12/26/my-year-in-books/ The Furious Scribblings of Chris Pramas Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:02:27 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.10 By: Anonymous http://www.chrispramas.com/2009/12/26/my-year-in-books/#comment-51 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:02:27 +0000 http://chrispramas.com/?p=18#comment-51 Distant Mirror FTW. 🙂 Heh, that is the one history book (as opposed to history dramatization or historical fiction) that really made the subject matter come alive for me. I've read the Gies' umpteen books, William Davis, HW Kaufmann, Marjorie Rowling, Eileen Power, Christopher Dyer, Phillip Warner, et al. Tuchman is the best of the lot.

Regarding the preceeding comment, don't forget that Bots make Spam.

'Liberal' has been turned into a dirty word by the neo-cons. Even though they benefit everyday from liberal policies of the past. Typically short-sighted of them.
