Jill McNish is 25% done with The Years of Lyndon Johnson Set: The Path to Power; Means of Ascent; Master of the Senate; The Passage of Power

I’ve just finished the first of four volumes of Caro’s mammoth biography of LBJ. Long on politics and machinations, very short on personal life—I.e. marriage, children affairs. A real slog.

Jill McNish is 25% done with American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer
