RobChristmas isn't too far away, and I'm getting hounded by the family for ideas. So I'm thinking I may ask for a few books. So what are your favorites to recommend?
I think two that I'll ask for are The Glory of their Times (which edition is "best"?), and Lew Lipsets Encyclopedia.
Frank W, you've mentioned the encyclopedia a few times. When I did a quick search on amazon, quite a few variations came up (see below). Which one do I want?
Thanks,
Rob
