a family nickname of mine from about 3.new faves at present -
bio of Spike Milligan by Humphrey Carpenter - so PC that it gets in the way!
"Horisontal Instrument" novel by Christopher Wilkins. It's about a 'perfect watch' as a memorial to a much loved wife.
" The ship " by CS Forester, surprisingly good piece of puff about a Leander Class light cruiser, WWII in the Med. nver read this one before.
Have just re-read "master & commander" by Patrick Obrien. Sent me off to the library here and found a few previously unread by P.O'b.
Recent memorable faves.
"The First Salute" by Barbara Tuchman, anything by BT will slap you up the side of yr head.
"Longitude" the story of the RN's chronometers and one truly great man.
Finding another book by Ambrose Bierce, "Fabulous fables", not as pointed as the DD, but full of the hidden razor.
"a History of Warfare" by John Keegan.
