Finally finish Churchill's Marlborough! A great read with lots of info regarding the Tories and their predominant control and growth of the African slave trade I never knew. Lots fascinating stuff covering late 1600s and early 1700s England/Great Britain. Much, much more that Marlborough's record in the wars. A heavy but, very informative four volumes. A great read for those with an interest in the history of the time period or simply the History of the Churchill family. Absolutely fascinating! Brutal politics, showing no real behavioral change over the centuries in how politics play out. Well, unfortunately dueling is no longer legal.

Now a bit of fiction, the latest from Ann Hillerman in Leaphorn/Chee saga.
