I need a good book

Summer is just about here, which means I’m craving a good book to read.

Right now, at the top of my list is Scott McClellan’s White House tell-all.

But I’ve also had the urge to find a book about Teddy Roosevelt. He seems like an interesting character that I’d like to learn more about.

I enjoy learning about history. Last summer I read a biography of the very fascinating Benjamin Franklin. That was inspired by my reading the summer before of a book titled “Infamous Scribblers,” about the wild and crazy early days of American journalism.

There is also a book about the French and Indian War I’ve been meaning to read for a long time.

Of course, I wouldn’t mind a good piece of fiction either. I could always go for a fast-paced page-turner.

So does anyone have any good suggestions for the summer reading list?

  1. I've read two books about TR by Edmund Morris - "The rise of Theodore Roosevelt" and "Theodore Rex". I like both of these books.
