Packing my reading books, I read a lot of autobiographies, I find them endlessly interesting.

so just a taste of what i buy/read, the dam busters ( husband loves this one too, he was a ballistics scientist ) , Storm over the land, The end of the beginning, we were the rats ( of tobruk )

why old books, i like to see where we came from so I can have some understanding of where we are now

4 boxes packed today so far, 6 to go
