2026-08-01 I finished "The American Claimant" a week or so ago. It started out fairly strange, got much better - was really good at cutting down unearned aristocratic titles - but then finished up pretty strange and unclear. I'm looking forward to reading what others have said about this.

The movie version with James Garner narrating was quite good too. More later.

I am sorry. I read four books by Mark Twain. I was NOT sold, sadly. :(
