I am making great progress on my book projects. The outline and topics are almost completed for my nonfiction book on technical recruiting and the story I am fleshing out for my fiction book is also coming along nicely.
This week I’m focusing on a book about the Thirty Years’ War. I have never really understood this conflict, so I wanted to learn more about it. The book is on my list below and is free on Amazon.
I’m headed off to the gym. Have a great Thursday everyone!
Books:
The Shariyat Ki Sugmad, Paul Twitchell
Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe
The Spiritual Exercises of ECK, Harold Klemp
Kobo: A Story of the Russo-Japanese War, Herbert Strang
The Dual Between France and Germany, Charles Sumner – This was an interesting book. I thought it would be more specific to the war aspects but was more of a report by Charles Sumner to President Grant about the war and the recommendations he is making to him. I enjoyed the read.
The Thirty Years’ War 1618 – 1648, Samuel Rawson Gardner
