A few years ago, I read the late Texas writer Gary Cartwright's book Galveston: A History of the Island".

Cartwright gave a great deal of detail about the event, but Erik Larson's Isaac's Storm, makes you feel as if you were actually experiencing it!...

Candice Millard has become one of my favorite history authors. River of the Gods is my third eperience with her work, and she has made quite an impression. Her pick of topics is interesting to begin with, and her level of detail shows obvious research into her subject matter. River of the Gods, was my final completed read of 2022, and my favorite read of the year!

The search for the source of the Nile River.

Born and raised in Muncie, IN, Craig is about as typical middle-America as they come. His 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, followed by another 15 as a DoD contractor, allowed him to live in several places in the States and overseas. After over 20 years in German and the UK, he and his wife settled in Oklahoma City. He continues working for a local computer consulting company under contract with a major airline manufacturer, which keeps him busy during the weekdays....

Close friend for half a century, Craig Hastings has become quite a respected author.

A couple of the books I read this year had no formal cover on Goodreads, and so do not appear in the montage....

In late August 1619, a ship arrived in the British colony of Virginia bearing a cargo of twenty to thirty enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival led to the barbaric and unprecedented system of American chattel slavery that would last for the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country’s original sin, but it is more than that: It is the source of so much that still defines the United States....
