Hey, I remembered to update with a few notes. The weather is getting nice, the early spring bulbs are about done, lilac is getting close to opening flowers.
Busy with activities other than reading, moving into that time of the year. Things to do at home and away from home. Like going out and playing with racy cars. I maybe do a half dozen events, but 40 years ago it was a dozen or more!
Last post of April for books, where is the time going.
Prequel, Rachel Maddow's look into the people and actions of the 1930s and 1940s in which people in the US chose to support fascism and the Nazi's. This included many elected officials, people who supported Germany, who wanted the US to stay out of any European conflict and those against the Jews.
Not an easy read, but well written. It also brings forward of how much history we never really learn. In school you get a very high level overview of things, touching lightly on the major happenings of the period and moving on.
It also is a comparison as to how things are today and what is happening again with those who want to support totalitarian government.
Happy Reading.

I agree - you simply can't have too many books.

Reading is a balm. When you delve deeper into history, the more you learn you need to learn.
