I am sure that a biography of Miss West would make interesting reading, but I am not reading about her.
And I read The Trouble with Harry Hay many years ago.

I am reading about the last days of World War I. From the start of the peace talks to the ending of hostilities was just a matter of days, less than a week. The terms offered by the French were harsh to say the least, but Germany was disintergrating and had no choice but to accept.
