The Hundred Days by Patrick O'Brian (9/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:04 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

I’d recommend any book in this series. They have their highs and lows, but all-in-all I think this is one of the better entries in the series. I tend to favor the more Maturin-centric tales like this.

Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt (9/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:02 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

A straightforward and methodical look at the economic principal of accounting for both the seen, and unseen effects of a given economic policy. Bastiat’s broken window fallacy applied to all sorts of situations. Great stuff.

Basic Economics: A Common Sense Guide to the Economy by Thomas Sowell (6/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:02 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Not bad, but I was expecting a more basic econ textbook rather than, what more often than not, feels like a purely political analysis (not that I disagree with his positions, just not what I was looking for).

The Yellow Admiral by Patrick O'Brian (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:01 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

No review written.

Cat Among the Pigeons by Agatha Christie (6/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:01 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

I never wrote a review for this one.

The A.B.C. Murders by Agatha Christie (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:00 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Nothing to see here.

The Commodore by Patrick O'Brian (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 6:00 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Ending is pretty anti-climactic, but the meat of the story is very interesting.

The Wine-Dark Sea by Patrick O'Brian (9/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 5:59 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Apparently, I liked this one.

The Truelove by Patrick O'Brian (6/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2008 - 5:58 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Sorry, no review.

The Nutmeg of Consolation by Patrick O'Brian (8/10)
