1. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read Seven Pillars of Wisdom: A Triumph by T.E. Lawrence and commented:

    I've read it, but it was quite a while ago so my recollection is somewhat blurred. On Mount Tobereadagain!

    (The movie, while romanticized, is also very good. Try to get a restored edition with additional footage, improved print, better sound, etc.)

  5. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read Longitudes and Attitudes: Exploring the World After September 11 by Thomas L. Friedman and commented:

    Definitely a instant history. Derived from Friedman's columns and personal notes. Skip this one and go with "Lexus and the Olive Tree", "The World is Flat" or one of his longer and more "timeless" books.

  6. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read From Beirut to Jerusalem by Thomas L. Friedman and commented:

    Some of the personalities described have died or moved on, but a very good view of the Middle East (and what a strange place it is).

    Read Versions 1.0 and 2.0. O.K., but somewhat instant history/analysis. Whether 3.0 is as "dated" as the earlier versions are, I cannot say.

  8. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read The Generalship Of Alexander The Great by J.F.C. Fuller and commented:

    I've read it, but it was quite a while ago so my recollection is somewhat blurred. On Mount Tobereadagain!

  12. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read The Lexus and the Olive Tree: Understanding Globalization by Thomas L. Friedman and commented:

    While some of the people depicted have moved on, a good read to help understand the clash between the have's and have-nots (or the First World vs. the Third World).

  13. On Mar 24 2010 Fred Kiesche (USA) read The Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World: From Marathon to Waterloo by Edward Shepherd Creasy and commented:
