***WHAT WE'RE READING***
"From Empire to Europe"
by Geoffrey Owen
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0002556820/entertainments08
Geoffrey Owen completes his surgically precise biopsy of the
"British disease"--post-war industrial decline--with a positive
diagnosis. In "From Empire to Europe", he uses case studies of
key industries to discover why they have boomed and why
assumptions about Britain's post-war decline can be confined
to history.

"Alistair Cooke"
by Nick Clarke
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0297643789/entertainments08
His weekly "Letter from America" has illuminated the course of
the century over the last 53 years but Alistair Cooke has
always remained something of an enigma. Nick Clarke discovers
the rich and often surprising life story of the man whose
debonair tones epitomise the Special Relationship between
Britain and the US.

"Stafford Cripps"
by Simon Burgess
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0575065656/entertainments08
In this interesting and detailed biography, Simon Burgess
carefully pieces together the career of Stafford Cripps, the
post-war Labour maverick, explaining the Christian roots of
his radicalism, the tireless diplomacy of the war years and
his stint as Chancellor, when he remained a patrician to the
last, eating vegetarian meals off silverware.

***INTERVIEW WITH EDMUND MORRIS***
Edmund Morris is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "The Rise
of Theodore Roosevelt." In 1985, he became the only person ever
authorised by a sitting President to write his biography--14
years later "Dutch: A Memoir of Ronald Reagan" is the result.
Carina Trimingham spoke to him about this controversial book.
