Same book I've been reading since 2005.

"A Portrait of Baseball Photography" - By Fogel, Yee, & Oser.

The writing prompts of 23 7-year-olds. Riveting stuff. I'll post highlights soon.

I recently finished reading "The Last Boy" about Mickey Mantle. I can't say that I was overly impressed with it since I didn't really learn anything new, but I would probably recommend it for someone that's not familiar with his life as it is pretty thorough with a lot of information.

The Politics of Rage: George Wallace and the origins of the New Conservatism, by Dan T. Carter.

A fascinating study of the personality and principles of the Alabama populist who became the most influential "loser" in the history of U.S. politics. Great stuff.

'Race Ball'. Heard it was great, but just started.

I'm receiving my copy of The Glory of Their Times tomorrow or so hopefully. Excited to read it!

Right now I have two books going- one is massive, over 1000 pages, and it's called " The Spirit of Seventy Six-The Story Of The American Revolution As Told By Participants" edited by Henry Steele Commager and Richard B. Morris.

The other one is called "The Book Of Kells"- an illustrated introduction to the manuscript in Trinity College Dublin, by Bernard Meehan. Beautiful illustrations in this book.

Sincerely, Clayton

Clayton- a question about the first book: how does one interview participants of the American Revolution? Didn't they die quite a while ago?
