2018-08-08 20:57:56 UTC  

@Darkseid awesome! You read Caesar's own version or Tacitus?

Market Wizards

Book by Jack D. Schwager

2018-08-08 21:00:18 UTC  

@Kaiser MJ Tacitus, but honestly would like Caesars account even though it's apparently "biased"

2018-08-08 21:00:55 UTC  

Extreme Ownership is also really great

2018-08-08 21:02:10 UTC  

@Darkseid Haha yeah, we don't know for sure, Caesar's own version is only "biased" because his version differed from other, later Roman/Greek historians, but it's good to have his version of events as well and try to remove the "bias" yourself, to do that you must however read Tacitus and the likes of Livy first

2018-08-08 21:08:09 UTC  

Another book I'm interested in is "Fall of the Roman Republic" most Roman history focuses solely on Caesar and onwards...but there was obviously some turmoil before that

2018-08-08 21:14:31 UTC  

Yeah, like SPQR also covers that from Mary Bead

2018-08-08 21:14:54 UTC  

That's honestly the most interesting part of the Roman times

The President's Keepers

Skippy!

if you are into fantasy type novels, you should give Jim Butcher's "Dresden Files" audiobooks a listen. He writes well & James Masters is an awesome narrator.

If you want to know more about the politics/history of Southern Africa, specifically in Zimbabwe, I suggest you read this book. Very enlightening. https://www.amazon.com/Great-Betrayal-Memoirs-Douglas-Smith/dp/1857821769

Thanks, rather am interested in the observations of Zim

2018-09-06 17:57:25 UTC  

I'd recommend it..not for nazi stuff obviously but just for historical context etc.
