I actually learned a fair amount of history from those books. Put stuff into a perspective I had never had before. For example, I never knew much about the Barbary pirates before.

Just finished Louis L'Amour's "Kiowa Trail". Just started Louis L'Amour's "Passin' Through". Apparently, that's the main character's name, Passin' Through.

I think I still have them all in my basement ... somewhere. Actually I know I do.
Did you read the Sackett series yet? Start with this one - "The Sackett Brand"

The Ethical Slut.
A Practical Guide to Polyamory, Open Relationships & Other Adventures 2nd Edition updated and expanded. A very entertaining and informative read so far (55! pages of reviews here). (not really 55 factorial, come on. 55 wow, ok?) I'm only partway through the second section and I've already gained a lot. One particular paragraph seemed to crystallize my experience: Quote:
I married in haste and repented (and repented and repented) at leisure. I married in haste, because, well, although there weren't any shotguns in attendance, it *was* the next step. I need more steps. I hope to find some ways to identify them in the pages of this book.

V, the question is "After reading this book, will you be a better slut?"

I'm already a better, and more ethical slut.
Some of this change is due to what I've read in the book, but more of it is due to the other changes in my life that also led to my introduction to this book.

Wait!
I think you meant "more, better sluts". Better sluts and more of them. I couldn't agree more better.
