Best read in long time. Salvage of a submarine in deep water in 1925.
All sorts of issues and near death experiences for saturation divers in a time before osh and modern technology.

Red Alert by Peter Bryant excellent read.
I’m sure most people here would have seen the Epic movie Dr Strangelove and the rogue B52 launch orders.... Well this is the book that it is based on but sans the black comedy of the movie and it’s a well written thriller even knowing the outcome.

Warnings Unheeded: Twin Tragedies at Fairchild by Andy Brown.
Written by USAF Military Police officer Andy who was patrolling on bicycle when he ended up as Johnny on the spot and shot dead a mass shooter on the base just four days before the Reckless B52 Pilot Bud Holland fatally crashed on base practice forbidden manoevoures for air show.
Neither event should have ever happened as there were staggeringly obvious red flags in both individuals before each disasterous event. Well written and interweaves the two stories in as close a timeline as practicality’s allows. Perhaps too much detail on the shooter side as so many individual victim stories but as a cop I guess he feels compelled to tell those.

Art of the Deal by Donald Trump
First part of the book is hard reading as he’s try’s to describe his daily schedule of business calls.
However it develops well into a great read and you learn the thought process behind his big business success stories. Gives a great insight into how these mega big property deals work and also how easy they can fail.
Love or hate him recommended reading for some great tips on building successful relationships and deals.

Is it about how to turn Dad's fortune into a comparatively smaller fortune despite starting with a shit ton of capital?
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
I have been re-reading The Expanse books preparatory to Book 9 coming out this year. I fucked up though I thought the book was due next month and it's November. Just finished Book 8 "Tiamat's Wrath".
This is the basis of the best currently showing science fiction TV show on any platform as well (its on Prime). Yes, including Star Trek (New Trek).

The Peculiar Case of the Electric Constable - a True Tale of Passion, Poison & Pursuit, by Carol Baxter
Steampunk title, 1850's Britain, a detailed account of a suspect in a poisoning caught by use of an electric telegraph outracing steam trains, and the subsequent investigation and trial. At the time the case gripped the entire nation: did he do it, or not?
What was dusty history comes back to life. It's a very well researched and written account of the times. The initial pursuit doesn't account for much of the page count, and the middle portion of the book is pretty hard work, but it's worth it in the end. One of the more memorable books I've had the chance to read lately.
Punks War by Ward Carrol
Tom Clancy style writing of fictional encounter of USA vs Iran fighter with an undertone of the various real world politics and troubles of carrier ops

I forgot how to read.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
