Yeah I wanted to do that too, but then I read the first few pages and it was quite depressing, and I was more in need of a pick me up. So I can't decide whether to read it now and then see the film, or do it later on and then just get the film on dvd.

I can recommend Axis of Time. Not exactly factual based. Main summery, a United Nations battle group, clustered around the U.S.S. Hillary Clinton (named after "the most uncompromising wartime president in the history of the United States"), is tasked in the year 2021 with stopping ethnic cleansing by an Islamist regime in Indonesia.

When an experiment goes horribly wrong on a special ship doing research on wormholes, most of the battle group is deposited in the middle of the U.S. fleet on its way to Midway in 1942. The WWII carriers and supporting vessels attack a Japanese Self-Defense Force ship, triggering devastating computer-operated defensive fire from the 21st-century fleet. While the action sequences are outstanding, this book really shines in depicting the cultural shock that both navies experience.

The Clinton group reflects a multicultural society that finds the racist and sexist attitudes of 1942 America almost as repugnant as those of the Axis powers, while the mere thought of non-whites and women not just serving in uniform but holding command drives many Allied officers and civilian officials apoplectic.

Yeah a few weeks ago. It's definitely true that it gets much better towards the end. The first half, or just over, I'd read maybe 5 pages then be bored, but the rest was a lot more gripping.

Definitely agree with that. Once you get past the part where you read about the ideologies of Ingsoc (that bit does drag on) it gets much better. I'm glad you eventually enjoyed it, though.

I've never read anything by Bill Bryson, but I probably will now. If he's anything like me, he must be pretty great.

Haha, you should. I reckon you'd appreciate his harsh sarcasm and wit.

Bill Bryson is fantastic. I read his Australia book on the plane back from my trip to Oz and I was laughing out loud the whole way through it, people must've thought I was mad. His short history of nearly everything is really interesting too.
