Description
Stuart is back!!!!!! We've missed him in the studio and our setting the world to rights chats pre show. Again, we've tried to answer all your question in the topics themselves so forgive us for not reading out all your questions. We tried to address them in the discussions but of course will have missed a few opportunities. Recommendations: David Jungle Novels - B Traven B. Traven’s legendary Jungle Novels series, which begins with Government, details the oppression of the Mexican indigenous people and the subsequent uprising of the Mexican Revolution. This critically acclaimed but overlooked collection of six volumes is a classic that belongs on any historical fiction lover’s bookshelf and “constitute[s] one of the richest portraits of revolution in all literature” Eamonn Paris '44: The Shame and the Glory - Patrick Bishop Paris ’44 tells the story of the occupation and the liberation, but it does not read like military history . . . The book resembles some epic thriller, with vividly evoked characters all somewhere on the spectrum between collaboration and resistance, shame and glory . . . Paris ’44 is a wonderful book: droll, moving, with a cinematic eye and not a boring line in it. Stuart Michael Johnson - 4 TIME OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST
