    I can recommend a non-fiction book that’s topical if not fashionable. Sebastian Jung’s ‘War’ is an account of a journalist and photographer(latter recently killed on another assignment) embedded with a U.S. unit in Afghanistan over 15 months. Believe me, this is above average stuff in that field and is at times heart-rending. If you wish I can mail my copy to you. You may have read Jung’s astounding novel, The Perfect Storm, subject of a major film starring George Clooney. He’s a natural writer. I have to confess an interest here. My youngest grandson, Sean, is doing a second tour over there with the 2nd Rifles, almost in the same place my father – his grandfather – served exactly 100 years ago, with the Royal Irish Fusiliers. So, in the grand scheme of things, he might be exchanging shots with the grandsons of the same enemy his grandfather did! Weird, eh? Let’s hope they miss each other too!

      Thank you for your comments.

      I haven’t read anything by Junger before so I’ll investigate the book you mention. It is very kind of you to offer to lend me your copy.

      I hope your grandson is alright. It is weird to think that generations could be re-enacting the battles of years and wars gone by.

    Hello Mr. Denton. Please forgive me, but I did not quite figure out a better place to put this. I needed to stop by and thank you for reading and liking one of my humble posts. Cheers to all your hard work, and may 2012 bring you prosperity, happiness, and good health.
