1. Just started The Accidental Guerrilla: Fighting Small Wars in the Midst of a Big One byDavid Kilcullen. (Counterinsurgency – particularly in Iraq. I spoke to Kilcullen once, friendly, in a rush. The book is supposed to be good. Let’s see.)
2. Death at the President’s Lodging (Classic Crime) byMichael Innes. (Murder mystery in an Oxbridge-type college. I’m less optimistic about this one.)
