Thank you Marc for the book recommendation. I have appreciated
everything I have read by Jared. Right now, I am reading Cooper's
biography of Bernard Leach. After that, I should read a historical
novel on Sakamoto Ryoma I started a while back (Ryoma was an important
figure in the modernization of Japan and the Meiji restoration) but when
I am done with these, I will check out "Guns, Germs, and Steel." I
think that anything that would dissuade Americans from believing in
"Manifest Destiny" is a good idea. The luck of place (geography),
resources and timing are so important.
