I’ve been working on reading fewer books at one time with some success….

….and then I started four books in the last three days. Here they are:
  • Our Man in Charleston: Britain's Secret Agent in the Civil War South by Christopher Dickey
  • Six Tragedies by Seneca, translated by Emily Wilson
  • Pleasure and Privilege: Life in France, Naples, and America, 1770-1790 by Olivier Bernier
  • Where the Wild Winds Are: Walking Europe's Winds from the Pennines to Provence by Nick Hunt

I’ll have to dig in before my Thanksgiving company shows up this weekend or they’ll languish; fortunately they’re all engaging although not stellar the way my last three books were (it’s a little early to call the Seneca). The Bernier suffers from being dated.
