[QUOTE="Jack7, post: 5043930, member: 54707"] [B]Non-Fiction[/B] [I]To Wake the Dead[/I] - I picked this book up at the library the day before New Year's Day. The book seems an excellent if unanticipated follow-up to the Artist, the Philosopher, and the Warrior, which I just finished. It's about a Renaissance merchant, Cyriacus of Ancona, who in his trade travels becomes, what I guess you could call, the Renaissance's first amateur, or pre-professional archaeologist. To me it is excellent. [I]Cop Without a Badge[/I] - I am always interested in the techniques, and methods of those who work undercover, be they undercover Dicks or Intel operatives or espionage or even just informants or turned agents, and seeing what I can learn from people like that. Maher seems to have spent a lot of time hard-under as a CI. The book is interesting. [I]The Hawk and the Dove[/I] - About Paul Nitze, George Keenan and the Cold War. I've gotten to where I really like reading dual biographies and institutional biographies. I finished a good one not long ago on the Rand Corporation and it sorta pushed me to be curious about Nitze and Keenan.
