Obsessions include Henry VIII, early imperial Roman history, and diet and nutrition. Love books on paper.

The Pharoah - Life at Court and on Campaign by Garry J. Shaw (nonfiction)
A pretty zippy read for a work of scholarly nonfiction. I enjoy when an author explains how we "know" what we know, for instance, ancient sources or archaeology. The beautiful pictures shed light on the conclusions in the text.
