"The Complete Story of the Galveston Horror" by John M. Coulter About the September 8, 1900 hurricane that struck Galveston Island.

Hope it's OK to revive an old post. I didn't want to start a new one. There was a post about the movie "The Butler" that veered off and "Jeremiah Johnson" came up so I decided to read a couple of books about the real man John (Johnson) Johnston. "Mountain Man" by Vardis Fischer and "Crow Killer- The saga of Liver Eating Johnson" By R.W Thorpe. The real story would have made an even better movie. Started "American Sniper" a couple of days ago.

Presently reading "Enders Game," by Orson Scott Card. With the movie coming out, I wanted to read the book first.

I've never read any of the Jack Reacher books. The first I ever heard of them was when my brother laughingly told me Tom Cruise was playing Jack Reacher in a movie. I asked what was funny about that Then he told me a little about the character and his height Tom Cruise...

"Moss, Mallards and Mules" by Bob Brister. Next I'm going to reread "The Gun Digest Book of the .22 Rifle" by C. Rodney James.
