A Farewell to Arms: A detailed historical account of the implementation of the famous (or notorious) Small Arms Registration Bill, passed in the wake of the killing of President Lincoln, which severely restricted gun ownership rights in post-Civil War US. As Henry Wilson said at the time, "One President's murder is one too many. Unless this Bill becomes Law, I foresee a long and tragic list of casualties from the White House down to the farmhouse." Ironically, the book's author would himself die of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The Man in the High Casrle:

Brilliant story. Title based on the reference several German commanders made, regarding to Stalin in Kremlin during his final days in Moscow.

Starts off at the beginning of Operation Blauer Blitz, moves onto the ferocious street to stree fighting and the encirclement of Moscow. Then the bloody last stand at the Kremlin, where the Siberian Guard held on for 20 days, before being overrun by SS Liebdenstarte Adolf Hitler. Then the death ride of the Siberian armor that was so close to breaking the German lines.

It ends with Stalin's last moments, before he ended his life.

Very emotional book, and very inspiring!
