Don't Fall For It
Ben Carlson
Nic Cage, Al Capone, and Bill Clinton. And that's just the Cs! If you're a fan of Ben's work, you have to buy this book. He worked hard on it and it came out great. https://t.co/p1QaQp0CxS https://t.co/QIp7IoJc2z

Skunk Works
Ben R. Rich
This classic history of America's high-stakes quest to dominate the skies is "a gripping technothriller in which the technology is real" (New York Times Book Review). From the development of the U-2 to the Stealth fighter, Skunk Works is the true story of America's most secret and successful aerospace operation. As recounted by Ben Rich, the operation's brilliant boss for nearly two decades, the chronicle of Lockheed's legendary Skunk Works is a drama of cold war confrontations and Gulf War air combat, of extraordinary feats of engineering and human achievement against fantastic odds. Here are up-close portraits of the maverick band of scientists and engineers who made the Skunk Works so renowned. Filled with telling personal anecdotes and high adventure, with narratives from the CIA and from Air Force pilots who flew the many classified, risky missions, this book is a riveting portrait of the most spectacular aviation triumphs of the twentieth century. "Thoroughly engrossing." --Los Angeles Times Book Review@yourMTLbroker @morganhousel Creativity Inc, Only the Paranoid Survive, Skunk Works.

A Short History of Nearly Everything
Bill Bryson
@MidwestHedgie @CliffordAsness Just finished reading A Short History of Nearly Everything: "Nobody knows quite how destructive human beings are, but it is a fact that over the last fifty thousand years or so wherever we have gone animals have tended to vanish, in often astonishingly large numbers."
