A big me three on the Mitfords--I have been carting around a copy of "The American Way of Death" for years now, but have to give a special shout out to Nancy's "The Sun King," which is an incredibly engaging portrait of life at the court of Louis XIV. After suffering through mountains of dry-as-dust texts to get a history degree, I must bow down before "The Sun King's" brilliance and wit and tremendously readable writing. Nancy rules indeed!
