Gentlemen Bastards is a deep cut, my friend. A book either loved or hated - even by my family. It was an experiment I'd love to try again. Where should embed next?

"The Postal Service reflects the nation’s founding vision: to create a country both expansive and united." I love this story. I've always wanted to do a book about the USPS - part history/part travelogue.
