Some people are guided by history. Some people are recognized as very true historians. But I have just ordinary dreams. All my dreams are about Geronimo. I am always running away from his autobiography. I also dream a great deal about books. I am always in there reading. I recognize a Texan chalk addict in there, and I am always reading with him. Sometimes I am standing there and I wonder, why doesn't someone read with me? My dreams run on the order of Geronimo's autobiography. One year ago DJ Peach Cobbler told me to read Geronimo's Autobiography. I dream he is telling me to unlock my Apache masculinity. I am trying to finish Don Quixote* first. I open up a free internet archive PDF link. And then I always wake up.

*Along with the other major yeehaw summer/Blood Meridian arc books like the De Vaca account (lakeside press edition), The Other Slavery, The Apache Wars, and Moby Dick.

The left side is the Blood Meridian Saga in what I think is a good order to read (untitled blue book is Moby Dick). I read Blood Meridian just before the video came out and decided to do the work to properly appreciate it. I did skip 1491 and Paradise Lost and jumped straight into Don Quixote. The right hand side is miscellaneous books mentioned by Cool Cobbler not necessarily related to (re)reading Blood Meridian. Debt is referenced in the Blood Meridian video and I figured I’d show off The Dawn of Everything while I’m at it.

If enough people give me hecking chungus updoots I’ll do a whole bookshelf reveal so you can laugh at my pseudo-intellectualism and wasted money.

Edit: I haven’t read most of this. I’ve only read the LOTR Trilogy, The Fire Next Time, Slaughterhouse Five (albeit a decade ago so I may as well have mot read it in my memory), and Blood Meridian.

Also Paradise Lost and The Moors Account are not on the Cool Cobbler Book Club reading list but Paradise Lost is semi relevant and Moors Account is historical fiction from the perspective of Estebanico of the Narvaez Expedition/Cabeza de Vaca account and I wanted to check out how faithful it is.

Captain "Greysleeves" of the Barony of Mescalero goes out east to search for the fabled Apache hero by the name of Buing Ay-eich Sigsdifoor

All my dreams are about Geronimo.
