Queen Backs Brexit (Buckingham Palace has taken the highly unusual step of complaining to the press regulator IPSO about a frontpage story in the Sun on Wednesday that claimed the Queen had voiced strong Eurosceptic views and wanted Britain to quit the EU.

I've read two books about Walter Cronkite. The first was Cronkite's War: His World War II Letters Home. Twenty-three years old and newly married, Cronkite was sent to England as a war correspondent. This story is told by his grandson, Walter Cronkite IV, with excerpts from the letters Cronkite sent his wife. The second, much longer book was Cronkite by Douglas G. Brinkley. Even though this was a long book it was very good.
