This book has been on my wishlist for a long time after seeing other bloggers’ reviews on it. However, I could never find it at local book shops and I don’t order books online very often. Thus, I am just getting this book in my hands now after a thoughtful stranger sent it to me […]
Battle Fatigue | Mark Kurlansky | Book Review
March 25, 2014
