Great running thread. My reading list is now overflowing.
Just finished: "Burying the Black Sox," meticulously researched and well-documented history of the 1919 fixed World Series. This is the definitive work on the Black Sox and the coverup that ensued.
Just started: "Traitor to His Class," biography of FDR, excellent so far.
Will start soon: "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest," the third in the Steig Larsson trilogy. The first two were riveting. I will try to pace myself on the third, but I know once I start I will be unable to put it down. No more Larsson. Pity.
