Did you enjoy the Robert Graves? I never finished that, but I heard good things about it.
Yes, I did. I like everything I've read by Robert Graves -- I want to read more of his books this year.
RAW was influenced by Graves's _White Goddess_, as we know.
Tom:Re: your list: I don't see Glennon's _National Security and Double Government_. Did you read that last year? I knew you liked it a lot. I couldn't find it in any library that would lend it out around my section of Unistat, so I asked a generous sister in law for it for xmas, and by gum: score!
