"Washington Burning by Les Standiford. I can't drive to Key West without remembering scenes from his book Last Train to Paradise. Now he has changed our nation's capital for me, where I spent three years
suffering at Georgetown Law School. His new book tells the incredible story of the rise of our nation's capital from wilderness. I usually don't read nonfiction, but his nonfiction reads like fiction. His amazing storytelling ability brings history alive and captures you and doesn't let you go.'"
BRIAN ANTONI, author of South Beach
I'm reading Steven Watts' Mr. Playboy, a new doorstop bio on Hugh Hefner. 200 pages in, it's good so far.
