23. Just finished "A Storm in Flanders" - Winston Groom
about the Flanders salient in WWI. Really educated me much more about what the battlefields were like in that era. I was researching several of the vets in our family who were in WWI. The descriptions of Passchendaele were horrific.
Now working on "Betrayal" which is about the exposure of Kurt Waldheim from the UN Secretary General to war criminal. It's absolutely fascinating how he got away with it for 38 years. Turns out lots of people knew, but kept it quiet for political or espionage purposes.
