I remember reading an alternate history book years ago called The Indians Won by Martin Cruz Smith. As I recall, after the battle at Little Big Horn, the Indian tribes all group together and form their own country. Seems as though there were some European investors involved. I don't remember much more than that, but I enjoyed it.

I just finished listening to Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, narrated by Norman Dietz. I bought it for a car trip and finished it up a few days ago. I thoroughly enjoyed it and Dietz was excellent with all the different voices.

I'm now trying to get through The Private Patient by P.D. James, so that I can move on to James Lee Burke's daughter Alafair's novel, Angel's Tip.
