"Hitter" a biography of Ted Williams by Ed Linn. Just about done and it's been great.

I am loving it.I have never been a "fan" of Mr King but my wife nagged me for 10 years to read it.We have about 5000 books in our house and I was looking for a new read so she sort of insisted I read this series. I like to read 3 books at a time!.A morning read a daytime read and an evening read.the "tower" is my morning read.I am reading "The Map That Changed The World" my daytime read and my evening read is some crappy fiction book to bore me to sleep.

Reading several right now:

Angle of Repose - fantastic book by Wallace Stegner. Great blend of past and present (1970) as seen by a wheelchair-bound historian, researching his grandparents' roots.

A Disturbance of Fate - a richly realized book of Alternate History, exploring many of the "What Ifs" that would arise in discussing an America in which Bobby Kennedy was NOT assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan in 1968.

also, re-reading Tender is the Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I go back and forth whether I prefer this one or The Great Gatsby. Both are awe-inspiring. Enjoying it for the third time. First read it way back in high school in 1985.

Travels with Herodotus by Ryszard Kapuscinski
One of my favorite authors, but this is starting to look like not one of his best efforts.
