@John O - ok sweet thank you
My uncle wrote a book and if it is any good I will post it here for anyone who wants to read it(no dox plz), but before I finish it and post the title I wanted to share this joke from it because it's too good to wait. "5000 years ago Moses said, "Park your camel, pickup your shovel, mount your ass, and I shall lead you to the Promised Land." 5000 years later, Franklin D. Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovel, sit on your ass, light up a Camel, this is the promised land.""
"Today Richard Nixon will tax your shovel, sell your camel, kick your ass and tell you there is no promised land."
@Der Seeteufel - SD Absolute gold! What's the book title?
Y'all NEED this! @everyone

@SamanthaM I wasn't going to post the title until I finished reading it myself but what the hell. It's called "Relating to Ancient Learning" by Gary Wietgrefe
@Der Seeteufel - SD Awesome! Thanks!
There's some pretty red pilled stuff in here. I honestly am wondering what his conclusions are.
@Der Seeteufel - SD Can I order it on Amazon?
I think so let me see if I can find it.
I'm sure he'll appreciate it. I think this book has some potential for being popular with the Alt-right. He defends McCarthy in the second chapter.
What's everyone's opinion on marking up books? Like highlighting and such.
@SamanthaM its a must. Engage the text every time you read. I highlight and annotate. Helps for going back as well and quickly finding important passages.
Great point, but what about for older books?
@SamanthaM I prefer ebooks for that reason. I use the the color codes transparent sticky arrows they sell in the office supply section if I'm reading a hard copy.
I don't find it useful, but that might be because I'm not trained in how to do it in any effective way
This might seem strange, but I take pictures of paragraphs I like
I use a picture to text app and save paragraphs in a memo folder
@SamanthaM do you have any recommendations for a book about colonial Africa? I am looking for something like a memoir from a colonists perspective. Preferably Southern Africa. Rhodesia would be ideal. Thanks!
Thank ya!
Never read this book, but I have heard is is pretty good. Not sure if it is what you are looking for though.
@Zyzz if you look in the European history section, you will find a few books there about Rhodesia. Specifically The Great Betrayal & When The Crocodile Eats The Sun
@Deleted User and @CarletonJ Thank you both!
Of course!
I've been adding books to Metapeida to help grow the platform. @Zyzz has been helping out too. If anyone else is interested, it would be great to have an army of people updating the platform. Books are probably the easiest thing to create pages for. If anyone is interested, let me know.
