Title: Suggest books
Post by: Jubin on December 24, 2008, 11:22:52 pm
Yeah I do read books. So I would like Argonath players to suggest me some book. Preferably the book authors would be from the Romanticism till Postmodernism era. I would like yeah mostly the best book you think your nation has to offer.

I just want to know what countries literature gets me the most, because atm it seems to me that the most I like German literature and the least French. Also I kinda dislike Russian literature, mainly just because it doesn't speak to me. I understand that the books I read "Anna Karenina", "Crime and Punishment", "Master and the Margaret" were all in the way of literature great books, but I just didn't find anything to me in those books.

If you ever have thought of reading any Estonian literature, I suggest "Czars Madman" by Jaan Kross.

I have no Books of your certain type to mention Jubin, but for a good read if you are interested in Guerilla warfare and war tactics:

I suggest 'Guerilla days in Ireland' By Tom Barry, former Chief of staff of the I.R.A (Irish Republican Army)

It is about the days in southern Ireland when Tom Barry organised columns to fight against British rule in Ireland, it gives a very detailed account of how modern day war-fare in and Guerilla tactics have been developed, and as Ireland and Cuba are the two countries that most Guerilla warfare textbooks have been written on I think it is most fitting for anyone wanting to learn more about this sort of warfare. Well Ireland with the I.R.A, Cuba with her revolutionaries, and of course Vietnam are probabaly the three countries that have gave the modern day world the most trouble and education concerning guerilla warfare, and if anyone mentions Iraq or afghanistan.. they are wrong, the problem of Guerilla warfare in those countries has only been going on for the last 20 or so years.

anyway, It is my favourite book  ;)
