Giles MiltonJames KestrelSo in the meantime I'm reading a Giles Milton history of the D-Day invasion with one of the catchiest titles of all time: Soldier, Sailor, Frogman, Spy, Airman, Gangster, Kill or Die. I found it in a hotel room and am glad I did.

Commentaries on the Laws of England: In Four Books: 3
William BlackstoneJames KestrelI woke up at 3 am because I realized in my interview with @writing_show I conflated the Hemingway characters Nick Adams and Robert Jordan. They're basically the same guy with different names. But for the record, yes, Nick Adams was not the protagonist of For Whom the Bell Tolls.
