"Top five books ever written... if you care to understand a thing about human civilization, travel, immigration, commerce, and conquest, that is. Standage has one of the most refreshing voices and well covers a subject that is so familiar to people that they haven't a clue how little they truly know about it. Guilt as charged, too... :)" Dec 02, 2014 03:19AM

"America is one year away from its entry into WWI, one hundred short years ago.

I cannot recommend this book enough for anyone wanting to get a glimpse into the American experience of that conflict. The timing couldn't be better, either, as countries seem to be pulling at the seams... and a lot of different views on patriotism are floating around.

This is a superb read, built on the diaries of five gallant men."

Winston S. Churchill

Jon   Stewart
“Yes, the long war on Christianity. I pray that one day we may live in an America where Christians can worship freely! In broad daylight! Openly wearing the symbols of their religion... perhaps around their necks? And maybe -- dare I dream it? -- maybe one day there can be an openly Christian President. Or, perhaps, 43 of them. Consecutively.”
Jon Stewart

Friedrich Nietzsche
“The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Mark Twain
“Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.”
Mark Twain
