    Congrats man! That sure is special! I would give anything to have a conversation with Pop. Awesome that he sent you that in response to your book. Shows the class the organization has, props to you for taking a chance. On the history side, one of the best books I ever read had to do with Prague and the effect that Stalin had post-WWII. Things never really changed after the Germans were forced out.

    having a conversation with Pop is very easy from what I hear. All you gotta do is walk over to his house and ring the doorbell

    Pop's personalized response to it (and the fact that he took time to read it) is very cool.

    Many thanks. I really posted it here as much to show what kind of guy Pop is based on my own limited experience, but I'm really grateful for the good words.

    Pop is a big Barack fan so doubtful he'd say that

    props BillMc. pretty badass you have your own books and got the letter plus wine from Pop. I always wanted to try his label, plus it wouldn't be a bad idea to frame the letter.

    Cheers guys. I'm really grateful for the kind words. New edition of the novel coming out in late May or June (about the time we're celebrating the Spurs next championship). I'll PM you when its out.

    Why did it take so long for me to read this.

    And I would gladly buy a copy. If there is any way you could pm me about purchasing it I would do so? I love this type of book. Or any other method I could go about purchasing a copy I woul appreciate it. My Uncle was a foreign diplomat and wrote a book on the economics of Indonesia under Suharto.

    I would much rather read yours.

    And I posted after only reading the first few posts, so yes, put me on the list please.
