Just finishing "Jutland 1916: Death in the Grey Wastes" by Nigel Steel and Peter Hart. Excellent book with loads of eyewitness accounts. Quite an exciting account of the battle. Also, it is my first WWI history book.

On deck: "Black May" by Michael Gannon. Looking forward to this one, I read his "Operation Drumbeat" a couple of years ago. Really liked it.

Got "Das Boot" the novel as a present and finally started reading it. After having seen the movie/mini-series countless times, I was not sure this would hold my interest, but now I can't put it down.

Next up: Montsarrat's "The Cruel Sea" which I received at the same time.

Just recieved my copy of Norman Friedman's U.S. Destroyers: An Illustrated Design History, only three days after I ordered it. It's mostly for reference, but it does have a lot of good text on the development of the different classes, and a little operational history, so I'll be reading like a regular book.

Currently on A Storm of Swords, book three of the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin. Loved the first two books, and enjoying the third very much.
