Sunday Book Haul

Professor A. Roger Ekirch, Jonathan Chatwin, Telford Taylor

Last Sunday I bought 3 excellent books at Kinokuniya KLCC.

The Anatomy of the Nuremberg Trials by Telford Taylor is a memoir by one of the US prosecutors in the 1st Nuremberg trial.

This is the major trial of all the top Nazi leaders. Following this are 12 more Nuremberg trials. It is a gripping story well-told. Taylor writes well. It is a joy to read a story that flows well in elegant English.

At day’s close A history of Nighttime is a social history of how people spent their nights from late Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution.

The Southern Tour is a gripping story of Deng Xiao Ping’s trip to Guangdong to reinvigorate his drive to open up the economy of China.
