by Tom Standage
Reads like a textbook but still very enjoyable.

#16 The Fool´s Tale - Nicole Galland
#17 The Canterbury Papers - Judith Healey


A friend handed me this book. I would never have picked it for myself. I really enjoyed it! Fast paced, witty and funny in some areas. Kind of like watching a good futuristic action movie.
Karen,
Good going with the list. I imagine that your #4 slowed your pace a little?

#20 El Enigma Goya - Manuel Ayllon


I powered through this book because I had nothing else to read. It was okay. I don't know who I'd recommend it to. Opera fans...I guess.

He led a very interesting life.
I'm on to Sherlock Holmes next.

This is a comprehensive, smart and educational book. Brilliant. Everyone should read it.
