Churchill has many fans, not all of them are on the right. It isn't the keyword, it is that many people who bought Olson's book, also bought Zinn's work.

I got it too. The genius program at Amazon probably saw the similarity with Zinn in the title keyword "troublesome" - or perhaps they were finding similarity in the title keyword "Churchill" as in Ward Churchill? I suppose a book about the infrastructure of municipal drainage ("sewers") would be thought by Amazon to appeal to purchasers of books about needle and thread craft.

Just received, an email blast from Amazon.com, saying:
Dear Amazon.com Customer,

As someone who has purchased or rated Troublesome Young Men: The Rebels Who Brought Churchill to Power and Helped Save England by Lynne Olson, you might like to know that Three Plays: The Political Theater of Howard Zinn will be released on March 1, 2010. You can pre-order yours at a savings of $5.76 by following the link below.

Utterly clueless, but funny.
