@admiraldevs88 Yeah, that’s a dumb take. 4 good movies? Sly’s got entire franchises with 4 good movies.

Fun fact: about 25 years ago I published an academic paper in which Rambo III was the entire thesis lol.

Lord of the Rings

What book made you fall in love with reading?

[William McGrath @williammcgrath]

@admiraldevs88 Agreed - great album, but it might not even be the best of the 90’s.

@OldNewYork1664 I always thought the “I believe that we will win” chant is pretty badass.

[William McGrath @williammcgrath]

@OldNewYork1664 Congratulations! 🇺🇸

The academic in me is going with…

Sean Connery as Henry Jones, Sr in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade!

It also happens to be in the top three of my favorite movies of all time, and a prime inspiration for why I study history.

Whenever there is a documentary made about the 2026 World Cup, this video should be the opening scene

The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings. 35 years after my first reading and I still find every page simply magical!

[Goodreads @goodreads]

What's a book you'd love to experience for the first time again?

[William McGrath @williammcgrath]

I also wish I realized earlier that Mr. Williams has other works about one of my absolute favorite Americans, Alexander Hamilton. I ordered them the other day and am really looking forward to diving in!

[William McGrath @williammcgrath]

I am not reposting to win, but rather to encourage you to go out and grab this book. I’m on chapter 4 and it’s an outstanding work. Comparatively analytical and as deeply scholarly as Danielle Allen’s Our Declaration, but entirely unique. I’m beyond impressed so far!

@TWilliamsAuthor @heartsabustin @thebiblioblonde @RobinsonSpelMI @BalosKenne65649 Very cool! I am super grateful. For some reason, I am unable to send you a DM. It says your inbox is full, or something to that effect. Honestly, it’s no big deal - I am happy to pay and support your work!

@resetbasis I’m from Staten Island, NY, and back in the 90’s my band played at the Purple Shamrock. We loved that place! There was a reggae bar up the block that I just cannot recollect the name of. Anyone remember that place?

[William McGrath @williammcgrath]

@OldNewYork1664 Thank you! Much appreciated.
