I'm currently reading The Silent Deep: The Royal Navy Submarine Service to whittle away the time after the publication of Norman Friedman's British Submarines in the Cold War Era got delayed for the 37th time. My copy of Liberty Factory: The Untold Story of Henry Kaiser's Oregon Shipyards should be coming in today. It certainly wouldn't be the first time I was reading two or more books at one time!

Enjoying reading Lothar-Günther Buchheim's novel "Das Boot", saw the movie when it first came out to the theater.

Been reading Norman Friedman's "US Submarines Since 1945: An Illustrated Design History" for the third time because I'm a glutton for punishment. Actually, I really do enjoy it, it's just EXTREMELY detailed and dense.

I also recently finished reading Bill Yenne's "Building the B-17 Flying Fortress." Kind of dry, but the selection of photographs is incredible. You can read my review here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/...at_pdctrvw_srp

Not at all naval but a fascinating read so far is Sean McMeekin's July 1914; Countdown to War.

July 1914

Finished reading "USS Albacore: Forerunner of the Future" a couple days ago. A good fast read which can be purchased for $10. My review is here: https://www.amazon.com/review/R1XMLW...SIN=0915819252

Lately, I've been chipping away at a few Specialty Press aviation books, including "US Naval Air Superiority," "Magnesium Overcast," and "Vigilante!" I certainly never have a shortage of books to read!
