Recently, I've gone back and reread some of the Maclean novels.(those paperback editions always had those great covers.) <br /><br />And what better way to pass a fall rainy afternoon, then to watch The Guns of Navarone or Where Eagles Dare.

Even reading them again after all these years, I still get a kick out of the twists that I know are coming.mybillcriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350478005243505108noreply@blogger.com
