    Is this where some guy went nuts and killed a woman and children? Or am I mixing up my architects?

    You must be thinking of Frank Lloyd Wright's groundskeeper. Alden Dow studied under Frank Lloyd Wright. Different architects.

    The Murder of Cleopatra - Pat Brown - Prometheus Books 2013
    Name: Cleo.jpg Views: 407 Size: 8.9 KB
    Subtitled: History's Greatest Cold Case.

    Did Octavian dispatch Cleopatra and put out the suicide story for his own benefit? History is written by victors. The story is speculative but interesting.

    The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks - Jeanne Theoharis

    Name: IMG_4889.jpg Views: 342 Size: 12.2 KB
    She was not some hapless, unwitting seamstress who one day got tired on a Jim Crow bus but a fierce, tireless civil rights tactician and organizer many years before her storied arrest and for decades afterward. This biography explodes the myths and illuminates her life and work.

    I thought I read this too, but it's also a documentary, so maybe I only saw the doc. Sans you're killing the reading game. I used to read a ton of books. The internet has zapped a lot of my attention span. You've inspired me to get back into reading an actual book. Give my eyes a rest from the laptop screen.

    Didn't We Almost Have It All: In Defense of Whitney Houston - Gerrick Kennedy



    This author does a fantastic job of nailing the essence of what made the world fall in love with Whitney--and explores why that same world tore her down with glee in her darkest hours. Recommended.
