"A Question of Character: A Life of John F. Kennedy" by Thomas C. Reeves. I've had the book for a long time but never got around to reading it.

Golf Monster, by Alice Cooper

Picked it hoping there would be something about the original AC band, and it turns out there is plenty, and I'm only at the point of them heading to Detroit, circa 1970. So far, this has been a VERY interesting and absolutely hillarious read. A true snurkle-fest.
Anybody into that era's rock history should tear thru this book ASAP.
Alice is a great writer, naturally funny, has lots of incredible facts about those times and what the band (that I was/am totally into) had to put up with all-the-while having a great time.

Highly suggested.

I am currently reading the book or my 'ukulele book entitled "Discovering the 'Ukulele" written by Herb Ohta, Jr. and Daniel Ho because Herb Jr. is my 'ukulele teacher and I had my first lesson with him this past Friday.

Just finished Horns, Hogs, & Nixon's Coming by Terry Frei. It was the story of the last NCAA football championship game in America, without a single black player on either team. The year was 1969.

Now starting The Best of Plimpton by George Plimpton. Vignettes and excerpts from a variety of his prolific writings.

Miki Dora

All For A Few Perfect Waves: The Audacious Life And Legend Of Rebel Surfer, Miki Dora.

I don't like the author's gait, but there's lot's of quotes and side stories by friends and enemies alike that add a better quality to the overall read.
An incredible time and personality. Miki was just a few years behind 'his' time.

Re: Miki Dora

Just started "Armageddon in Retrospect," a collection of previously unpublished writings by Kurt Vonnegut. The introduction was written by his son, Mark. I'm only about 40 pages in, and my already enormous love and respect for Vonnegut's work has grown exponentially.
