Avid Naked Readers

For those who love to read, either old fashioned paper books ( and my preferred way) or the new fangled ebooks. There was a book reading nudist group at one time but i have not found any trace of it. So this will fill the void.

I read "King Solomon's Mines" by H. Rider Haggard. Published 1885. The book has a similar theme with "How I found Livingstone" by Henry Morton Stanley published 1872 and "Heart Of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, published 1899.

I just finished reading "Avogadro Corp", by William Hertling, about an emergent artificial intelligence. It was OK, but I don't plan to buy the sequels. Another recent completion is "Airplane Photography", by Herbert Eugene Ives. It was written just after WWI, and covers the state of the art in aerial photography at that point.

Currently reading "Allan Quatermain", by H. Rider Haggard, an adventure tale set in central Africa with connections to many other Quatermain novels such as "She", "King Solomon's Mines", etc. Also reading "The German Aces Speak: World War II Through the Eyes of Four of the Luftwaffe's Most Important Commanders". As one would expect from the title, it's a set of interviews with top Luftwaffe WWII pilots. It's quite interesting.

I read "The Batting Cage" by Joan Ackermann, copyright 1999. A two act play about mourning the death of a twin sister. It was a very catty play.

I just finished reading "Mission: Jimmy Stewart and the Fight for Europe", by Robert Matzen. It's a history of actor Jimmy Stewart's wartime service as a pilot and commander in the Eighth Air Force, flying B-24 bombers out of England. Quite good!

I completed "America's Longest War The United States And Vietnam 1950-1975". by George C. Herring. Published 2002. He did an excellent job of describing all the known and unknown facts. The book discussed opinions of presidents from F.D.R. and Truman and continued on with Kennedy , Johnson , and Nixon. Privately all felt the was un winnable: publicly they all felt a victory was possible. I highly recommend this book.

I just finished an ebook scan of "Fighting Germany's Spies" by French Strother. It's a recounting of German spy activities in the US during World War I, especially before the US became involved in the fighting. Germany did a lot of things that violated American neutrality in their efforts to prevent American munitions and aid from reaching England and its allies. This book describes the plots that were discovered and blocked by the efforts of the US Department of Justice.

I read "The line Becomes A river" by Francisco Cantu', copy wright 2018. It was a semi autographical account of the author's life before and after his five years of service with The United States Border Patrol. He discusses his opinions before and after his service time. This book had a similar theme to "Inside The Wire" by Erick Saar and Viveca Novak copyright 2005.
