I just finished Senseless Secrets- The Failures of US Military Intelligence from George Washington to the Present, by LTC (Ret.) Michael L. Lanning.

It confirms why we consider the term "military intelligence" to be an oxymoron.

Currently still reading "The Big Thaw" by Donald Harstad.

Mr. Harstad is a former deputy sheriff who writes fiction novels about a Nation County Deputy Sheriff in Iowa.

Good reading!

Did CS Forrester write the Hornblower series? Its been repeated on TV over here and is excellent. in a similar vein are the Richard Bolitho series by Alexander Kent who is also Douglas Reeman whoe writes novels about WW2 naval.

This was the last book I read. Turned out to be somewhat different than the movie.

Right now I am reading The Anatomy of Motive by retired FBI agent John Douglas.

I read his first two books, 11 Days and Known Dead and they were both pretty good.

Yes. The books are excellent, if you haven't read them yet. I'm curious -- I can't find many Americans who admit to reading her books, but has anyone read Josephine Tey?

Shooter: put down that book! Go to the theater, watch the movie. Go to the bookstore. Go to "fiction." Go to the "F's". Pick up any book by "Furst, Alan".
