Am recovering from patellar tendon rupture repair surgery. Injured fighting woke, drag queen, liberals and Russian mercenaries... Not really, slipped while training/walking a dog. Anyway, would appreciate your suggestions for some books to read - Africa related or not. I know this is a studious and enlightened crowd that is well read in all topics. So, I am open to your suggestions. Thanks.... | ||

Check out Ian Frazier. One on Siberia and another on the Great Plains. Buddy Levy's Empire of Stone and Ice is also good. He has a few other interesting titles. | |||

The Frontiersmen - Allen W. Eckert is my all-time favoirte.

Not a hunting themed book, however a very interesting read. The River of Doubt by Candice Millard Theodore Roosevelt's exploration of an uncharted tributary of the Amazon River. Exercise makes you look good naked, so does bourbon.....You decide | |||
