As far as history books goes, it is intriguing and I am reading entire chapters at a time, rather than 2 pages and falling asleep.Dashing Dadhttp://dashingdad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-17607880119690175732014-01-11T09:44:32.060-08:002014-01-11T09:44:32.060-08:00I love those "game" moments.
