So some time ago I made a thread in OT about maybe starting a SD.Net Book Club for swapping history books. Well I just got a small stash of books given to me from a good friend which I'm not going to be able to read in the near future. So if you're interested let me know, all I ask is that you pay for the shipping when you return 'em. (Or send them on to another interested party.)

The books:

Blood and Iron, From Bismarck to Hitler the von Moltke family's impact on German History.
By Otto Friedrich.

King Leopold's Ghost, A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa. By Adam Hochschild.

The Fall of Berlin, by Marshal Vasili I. Chuikov, Former Supreme Commander Soviet Land Forces.

The Zimmerman Telegram by Barbara Tuchman.

and The Russo-German War, 1941-1945 by Albert Seaton

I also have quite a few other books I'd be more than happy to send out which I'll record if there's any interest in these. Post a message on the book your interested (so nobody else claims it) and PM me your address and I'll let you know when I send it out.

Other books I'd be happy to lend out:

Vienna, 1814 by David King. It's a new book that just came out on the Congress of Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. It's very well written and deals quite well with the Vienna Social Life and gives a moderate amount of detail on the negotiations too. It's not a heavily academic book by any means, but it's rather good I think.

A War Like No Other, Victor Davis Hanson.
