Endgame

Just finished Endgame, a biography of Bobby Fisher. It was excellent, and highly recommended if you have even the slightest interest in one of the most brilliant - and enigmatic - American's in modern history. One of the more interesting aspects of this book is that the author knew Fisher well, and was eyewitness to both his ascent and decline. A fascinating read; almost as good as Unbroken.

Next up, unless someone has a better recommendation, is this examination of our failed strategy in Afganistan. It's gotten pretty rave reviews and it's been a while since I've read a good military analysis.
