Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitudes Currently reading Track Progress and notes in this message

I will be starting my language study either very late January or very early February. This year will be a general study. I might add a book or two you have listed here to a future year's study. . . . Enjoy!

Let me know which ones you might be considering and I will read it with you.

Maybe you can second it....which month works best for you?

Yes. I did see someone--might have been you--expressed interest in this book. Let's see what I can do to support that possible group read at NFBC. That is the book off this list here that I most want to read.

Looks like we have alreadh voted for February selections at NFBC. Let me know if you decide to do buddy read there as there is interest there. . . . .

Ok I put a note for me to nominate this book "in Febuary" after the moderator of the group said this:

This is an interesting list, Cosmic. I am more of an impulse / mood reader than not but I might be interested in some of your titles about China. I'll check back with you in another couple of months. Also, you might consider putting forth some of these as BOTM nominations. Just to let you know, April, August and December are the international-themed months; the nominations for these will be held in February, June, and October.

So you are telling me to wait? that you are disappointed? something else?

Let me know whenever you decide to read as group or buddy read The Rhetoric of Mao Zedong, and I will read with you. I always vote for group reads at NFBC, so when I see that book, I will vote for it. . . . .Let us make sure to read this book, earlier in the year, the better for me.
