I think I'm just gonna spend the night bumping old threads.  :p

Stumbled across a new blog, "The Art of Manliness".  They have a decent book list, "100 Must-Read Books: The Essential Man’s Library".  I ordered a few of them from my library.  Mostly the Roosevelt and Franklin biographies.

I'm shocked at how good that list is. Also, my vanity requires that I report here that I've read more than most of them. (probably own around half) As to the books I have not read from the list, almost all were (or are now) on my list. However, I will not be reading 4 books on Teddy Roosevelt! LOL

H5 for the great find!  :cheersmate:
