Wow, nothing since July? At any rate . . .
I finished The Good Fight, Shirley Chisholm's campaign memoir about her run for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 1972. It was fascinating and well written, indeed, though it doesn't provide much personal information about Chisholm, the person. Chisholm the politician and activist is quite interesting enough and the book tells of a pivotal time in American history. You can find a longer review on my 50-Book Challenge thread.
Next up for me will be the Vietnam War combat history, Sappers in the Wire: The Life and Death of Firebase Mary Ann by Keith William Nolan.
