Sobre mimCurrent student at Brandon University. Working on a 4-year BA in History, as such most of my current purchases are non-fiction history books or historical fiction.
Sobre a minha bibliotecaMy library is largely the product of the last two or so years of my life as I've continued to spend a large part of my disposable income on books mostly from the two or three nice little used or overstock bookstores that somehow manage to exist in this smallish city. Overall I'd have to say its really shaping up to focus on a few distinct genres or categories:
- American History
- British History
- Canadian History
- Political Biography
- Military History
- The First World War
- The American Civil War
- Naval Warfare
- Slavery and Abolitionism Studies
I also have smaller collections on the Second World War, the Napoleonic Wars, Classic Fiction, Historical Fiction, Latin American History, and Byzantine History.

I recently came across CEF Books www.cefbooks.ca they're doing some reprints including Ghosts have warm hands by Bird and Agar Adamson's letters. Norm Christie seems to be behind it. Worth a look IMO.

How are you doing? Would you happen to have come across anything on the Canadian 5th Armored Division in your reading? A friend's grandfather served and she's interested in doing the battlefield tour thing. From what I've been able to gather they were in Sicily then pushed through the Hitler and Gothic lines. My coverage for the Italian campaign is pretty spotty. Anyway if something jumps to mind I'd love to hear about it.

When was the last Canadian military history book you saw from an academic other than Terry Copp, Granatstein, Morton or Bercuson? There are some non-academics doing some good work but that next-generation of academics doesn't seem to exist. It's a little scary...

I see you have 3 of Robert K Massie's books in your library - he's my favorite author because he does such as wonderful job of writing about history. Ive forced his books on many friends and family members who normally dont read nonfiction.
Also recently read All the Shah's Men & King Leopold's ghost which were both excellent.
And you?
