(1,408 posts)From the reviews it looks like "Nixonland" will be an interesting read. The Kennedy/Nixon eras have always been an interesting to me. Probably because President Kennedy was assassinated when I was eight. Then the 60's and early 70's seemed to explode with people and events, not only politics, that are still having an effect on what is happening today.
Last year, for a couple of months, I got on a Kennedy/Johnson kick because I read Stephen King's book "11/22/63" and he had a list of the material he used for research. King's book is an interesting take on the assassination.
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I took a couple of days away from the internet and watched last seasons "Cosmos", since our library had just gotten it in, and my wife got me a collection of 50 Sci Fi classic movies last year so this weekend seemed to be a good time to watch them again. This is the collection http://www.amazon.com/Sci-Fi-Classics-50-Movie-Pack/dp/B0001HAGU6
I didn't know that there was a company that put out so many collections of different genres at a reasonable price. Looks like I'll be adding to my collection.
My wife found mine at a flea market for $5.00. One of the better gifts I've ever gotten.
