This book changed my lifeThe Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

@al...Yeah - the latest Napoleonic War. The one a couple of years ago. Don't tell me you didn't notice Europe being ravaged?
GRATUITOUS FACTOID: The word "bistro" comes from the Russian word "b'uistro", meaning "fast", in reference to the Russian occupying troops in Paris after the Napoleonic wars who'd yell it at restauranteurs to make them get a bloody move on.
