Currently studying WW 3 .. you know the one GW Bush started, I'm curious on how it's going to turn out. Right now we're in the midst of the economic crisis , not sure when the secondary revolution is going to begin. Should be interesting when we get to the next couple of chapters....:gnorsi::banghead:

 

the fall of the roman empire, leading up to Medieval times. Verry interesting.

 

at the moment, I'm reading a book called Cocaine: An Unauthorized Biography.

the part I'm at now is mainly about the ancient people of South America, where the chewing of the leaf began, but the book goes through the entire story -- from those first beginnings, to medicinal uses, to the crazy drug culture still happening today.

interesting shit.

 

Usually I read up on multiple historical subjects at a time (try to balance that with philosophy), however for the time being I've been reading a lot about WWII. Currently reading a book called "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" by Chris Bishop and David Jordan....amazing book, highly recommend it to anyone that's interested in WWII as it covers the entire war and is fairly in depth too.
