I'm off for a two week road trip: suggested reading while I'm away

Earlier today I posted a book review of IT CAN HAPPEN HERE, by Joe Conason. Before I leave for a two-week road trip, I want to make sure you have plenty to read while I’m away. Just in case you’ve already read Conason’s most recent book or are a fast reader, please read on.

I can’t think of a better place to send you than the American Empire Project, which has been developed by Tom Engelhardt (TomDispatch.com) and Steve Fraser, two editors with long and distinguished careers in publishing.

It’s obvious I’m a Tom Engelhardt fan, having posted about him on February 2nd. He’s my favorite blogger, has written three books and has edited well over 250. My lifetime goal is to read all of them.

If you’re not quite ready to join me in my ambitious project of reading everything Tom has written and edited, start small by going to the American Empire Project booklist. That ought to keep you busy for the next couple of weeks.

And with that, I bid you adieu:
