I miss the daily Capital Times. I read the weekly edition cover to cover, and find more news in that than a whole week's worth of daily WSJs.Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14312649753514924823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19261547.post-39091807205615683982008-08-14T20:43:00.000-07:002008-08-14T20:43:00.000-07:00Have you read "The Welsh Girl" by Peter Ho Davies? Similar concept and also in Wales though I think Resistance is a better book. I started the Philip Roth and really liked what I read but got distracted. Also read "Human Smoke" which is non-fiction and looks at all the people who were trying to stop WWII from happening. Makes a very interesting contrast with the alternative books. I will have to check out that website.
