HI Peg! Glad you’re feeling better.
As I’m sure you’ve heard, this coming Spring will be a BIG month for biographies.
In May, Ron Chernow is publishing a 1200-page biography of Mark Twain, and then in June Sam Tanenhaus is publishing a 1024-page biography of William F Buckley.
I can hardly wait!
A 1,000+ biography on William F. Buckley, Jr???? Whaaa??? I'm down. 🤣
@historybuff0393 Gotta love how Buckley threatened Gore Vidal in cursive (aka a mid-Atlantic accent). 😂 And I've been looking forward to Chernow's take on Twain for a while. The Twain stuff might have been my favorite part of his Grant biography. 😁
You do a great job showing and explaining the books. Peg❤. Love your channel. Keep up the great work😊
Thank you so much!
Hi peg👋
For sure if we are in a relationship there can be too many books. We have 10 large book shelves full around our 3100 sq ft condo. If it fits it stays. So i dont pile or have boxes of boxes. I rehome often to help. I love the library deco style❤ and of course reading😊
I'm glad you can relate!!
Wow! Will read Dangerous Fictions for sure. I am salivating already. Thanks.
Good luck with your switch I hope it really helps. I am on my own so you can never have enough of them. Always enjoyable, stay well.
Thanks for the explanation about the Barbary War! I assumed it had to do with "barbarians" based on the name. I've never heard of this war. Appreciate it.
I'm happy to help! And it's a good reminder for me to not assume people know about these more obscure historical events.
I hope you have a great Autumn Peg!
Great stuff, Peggy - hope your new healthy regime works out for you!! Like the look of that America First book!!
Thanks, Laurence! I'm on the road to better health every day!
I agree our fam is a blend of politics. I can still love you even if we dont agree❤
I use liquid i v in my waters. My dietician recommended to me for health
I think I'll try some of this! I need to make sure all the water I'm drinking isn't flushing out essential minerals!
Hmm, intriguing edit. And just when things were getting interesting too. Oh well, I suppose you know what's best for this venue. 😉
Clausewitz a nude emperor? Nay, I declare the author a swine contemplating vainly cast pearls. Truth be told, I don't know the first thing about Clausewitz. I just like being pointlessly contrarian.
Glad you're working on your health. I've been chugging the water too after yet another kidney stone experience. Doc keeps harping at me about stress. 🙄 Guess I'll have to shed my Earthly possessions and start living under that bridge like I've always dreamed. Let me know if you want my books. 🤪
Anyhow, thanks for the video, and all the best with your busy month.
I know, right?? I love being a woman of mystery.
Yay! Going to bed but will save this for tomorrow. Love your videos. I just read anne frank for the first time. Reading hope is the first dose by Christian army vet brain surgeon dr lee warren🇺🇸🩺🪖
