I've read that book. It was also interesting considering Childers's opinions about the future threat of Germany. Sort of prophetic, even.

As for me, right now I'm kind of looking for a good nautical-themed book but can't really decide on a particular one. There's quite a few of the classic and must-read's that I have to get started on.
