Don't read fiction, even if it's Achebe or Hemmingway or something.

The real stuff is much more interesting. Rolf Steiner's book from a military perspective. Robert Sapolsky's maybe. A Crocodile Eats the Sun, too.

I still have no idea why anyone ever thought killing a wild animal with a gun for sport was fun. Where's the challenge? I can sort of understand fighting it with something less overpowered, like a sword.
