I think I read that a long time ago-back before you discovered Scotland! Have you read Captains And Kings by Caldwell? I enjoyed that one very much, and it helped me understand what my poor history teacher was trying to drill into my brain about the Industrial Age in the US.

Oops, wrong Caldwell..Captains and the Kings is by Taylor Caldwell..still and good readh though.

I'm interested to know how many books do you buy a week or a month?

It varies. But, at the current rate, I'm buying them at twenty five per month. :eek:

Wow! That's amazing, using simple math it means that you can cover 300 books a year !!
Now it's 25 books a moth which is estimated to around 6 books a week!! When do you find the time to read?? Plus you are always online ??
I wish I could reach this rate! :rolleyes: any advices??
