Mailbox Monday
Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event. Mailbox Monday has now returned to its permanent home where you can link to your MM post.
I got a couple of books last week that go together:
Reagan: The Life by H.W. Brands
I don't know how anything can top the two-volume Reagan biography by Steve Hayward, but I'm willing to give this new one a shot. It is generating good buzz for being accessible and engaging, so it sounds like it will be enjoyable.
-- The Billion Dollar Spy by David E. Hoffman
Who can resist Cold War spy history that reads like the hottest fiction? Based on newly-released CIA documents and personal interviews, Pulitzer-winner David Hoffman tells the story of the Soviet spy who worked with the CIA's Moscow station in the last years of the Cold War.
I've heard good things about that Reagan book too - I wonder how political it is.
ReplyDeleteThe Reagan book sounds good! What a life, huh!
ReplyDeleteThe Billion Dollar Spy looks good.
ReplyDeleteENJOY your books and your week.
