Sounds interesting, sir.

At the moment:
1. The Age of Terrorism by Walter Laqueur
This is an excellent piece of work, published in 1987. Being written before all the Al-Qaeda related shit happened, it's a very readable study on political violence. It covers all terroristic organisations from the early Russian anarchists (1870-80) via the IRA and Spain in the 20s to the Palestinian and European terrorists in the 70s and early 80s.
Laqueur is an excellent writer, who is not trying to emulate James Joyce or looses himself in scientific ramblings.

2. Victims of Yalta by Nikolai Tolstoy
Just started, so no real opinion yet. It's about the handling of Russian prisoners of war/emigrés by the British Government. They were 'handed over' to Stalin after WWII and disappeared into Siberian exile.
I wasn't aware of this before I started this book, but it looks as if the Brits tried to cover this up. More later.
The writer is (distantly) related to the great Count Leo Tolstoy.
