And you can click the photo for more details about what I read this year. In brief, I read 38 books last year, which is far less than I would like to have read, but it was three books a month. I read 12,725 pages overall, and this is not counting our periodicals. The longest book I read was The Lincoln Anthology: Great Writers on His Life and Legacy from 1860 to Now edited by Harold Holzer. So, without further ado, here are the 38 books I read in 2012. Check back next week for my top 5 books from last year!
