This year, I'm taking some time to work on getting back to reading. I've read the majority of the Senior Leaders' reading lists in the past, but thought that maybe some folks here would have some good ideas for books to read in 2014
So far:
The Odyssey: Homer - I'm sure most of us remember this from English Class in high school/College. Interesting to pick up years later.
The First Heroes - Craig Nelson - The extraordinary story of the Doolittle Raid, America's first WWII Victory
Attacks - Field Marshal Erwin Rommel - Rommel's personal journal from WWI with still-relevant lessons learned

Sustainability Minor has me reading just about anything other than leadership or military art this year.
However: Charles E. Closmann, ed., War and the Environment: Military Destruction in the Modern Age (College Station: Texas A&M Press, 2009).
Good read, my professor actually did the section on Sherman's March to the sea.

My reading so far this year has been purely entertainment however I would reccomend that you read Unbroken if you haven't already. I read this book last year and it is truly an inspirational piece.
