Book Reading.....
May. 26th, 2013 09:06 amJust finished up book No. 13. I read Prague Winter by Madeleine Albright with Bill Woodward.
Prague Winter is part history part autobiography.
Madeleine Albirght was the Sec. of State for President Clinton. She was born in Czechoslovakia at the early start of Hitler's reign of terror on the world.
For me the book is kind of a sad out look on how badly the whole world reacted to Hitler's blatant take over of Europe.
You learn of how Czechoslovakia first started and how it fell to Hitler and raised out of those ashes only to be taken over by Stalin's Communist control.
This doesn't really do justice to the book, so I won't try any harder.
