George Bush can read

Guardian Unlimited Books | News | Hope you like my book, Mr Bush
A nasty little piece in the Grauniad by the historian Mark Kurlansky. Kurlansky is the author of some fine, readable, scholarly popular histories - of Salt, Cod and the Basques. It turns out that Salt is on George Bush's holiday reading list, which disquiets the elitist liberal Kurlansky...

Nice fisking of Kurlansky at L'Ombre de l'Olivier (found via To the Tooting Station: A Gallery Of Nincompoops, which I found via new Axis of Bob member a General Theory of Rubbish)
