I only recently got my copy back; I let McLean Stevenson borrow it back in the mid-'80s.  Man, was that a mistake.

Quick and interesting read. I'd heard the overview, but didn't realize the era that it occurred. 
Also, this was loaned to me in paper form. It was the first paper book I've read in a few years. I'm struck by how different it makes the experience, but also how the pros and cons stack up.  Maybe I'm just pragmatic, but while there are some serious positives to a paper book, in my ledger the Kindle wins hands down.

I'm personally more of a crocheter. I'm probably not manly enough for knitting.  ;-)

Canada’s ‘Superwoman’: Margot Kidder  These anecdotes about Kidder reminded me of how Hemingway lived (artistic fame, physical danger, too much sex, liberal causes, accumulated damage physical and mental...), and of this great book by Clancy Sigal, a blacklisted Hollywood agent and screen writer.
 

People who play that hard tend to get hurt.
