bluegargantuaHey,
Forgot to mention that I finished up "Stromtroop Tactics" by Bruce I. Gudmundsson. It's a book describing the evolution of German infantry tactics in WWI. It was...pretty dry. The footnotes took up a significant portion of the book. Still, it was quite clear and if it'd had a few more diagrams detailing individual operations it'd be a real winner.
Also, I have just finished reading the manga "Here Is Greenwood" vols. 1-3. Mmmm...Shune, she's so pretty! It's clear that it's been awhile since I've read manga regularly, the books are retain the right-to-left formatting Japanese texts use and I found a few of the image juxtapositions a little confusing. But Here Is Greenwood remains a wonderfully silly and fun story about the residents of a dorm in an all-boys private schoool.
Next up, not Zeppelins, but Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists: A Novel. A short read, but I've heard good things about it.
later
Tom
