Ghost of BiB Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Has anyone read "Castles of Steel" by Robert Massie? My boss gave it to me to read last night, looks like it might be pretty good but it's about 110,000 pages long.

That and Massie's "Dreadnought" are on the list...but pretty far down, as have thirteen volumes of Morrison to still read.

Is it done now and if so, do you know the title?

Is it done now and if so, do you know the title? 624051[/snapback] No, the last time I talked to him he was doing some travelling researching the last two chapters. I don't know that he's thought of a title, either. The subject matter is the lives before, during (and for those who survived) somewhat after the war of the West Point class of 1862. So, there is a lot of digging.
