Cancer Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Sigh, too much going on. It doesn't help that I found another "Grand Strategy of" book to absorb my interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I had to remember how many books by that title I have. At least three: Roman Empire, Philip II, and now Byzantine Empire. I have a nagging feeling I'm forgetting at least one, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Unfortunately, "remembering" is probably going to require going through all my shelves and boxes that contain books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Well, the one on Philip II of Spain was a library book, not one I bought. And I haven't seen a Grand Strategy of the Ottoman Empire yet, but that state really was just a series of individual despots with varying levels of ambition. Not a lot to that.

Cancer Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER OK, the Roman Empire one and the Byzantine Empire one are from the same author. Different university publishers. The Philip II one, different author, yet a different university publisher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Looks like there's on about the Russian Empire from in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th Centuries. Hmm, may have to go looking for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
