Let's try to get some more people to check in so we can have an awesome discussion. Feel free to periodically mention this book discussion to members when you're in other forums on BookTalk.org. That goes for everyone. Sometimes members don't notice that we have a brand new book discussion starting. The more we all mention it and link them to it the higher the probability of people joining the book discussion.

I will pick up the book at the library tomorrow. Oh, and read it and talk about it here, hoping I don't falter.

Francis, this thread is not about what books you're reading. This is a thread for members to "check in" and let other members know they're planning to read and participate in the discussion of American Character.
