News Of The Week
Welcome to this week’s issue of the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts. I have been thinking of running another contest in the next few weeks, perhaps an open ended poetry contest-any topic, even if it’s been published before, so long as it is the stacker’s original work. Please let me know if anyone is interested.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.
I hope everyone has a good week.Top Five Posts Of The Week

- Who Caused the Ukraine War? by @Bell_curve
@Bell_curve, as he seems to have a knack for doing, stirred up some controversy and heated discussion with this post. Whatever side of this issue you’re on, I see this discussion as valuable and important.
A Proven Antidote to Fear for Rome's Legionnaires by @Atreus
This was a great post about Julius Caesar that, as is usual, has relevance in today’s world. I am always puzzled about which posts garner attention, and which ones don’t. This one is a worthwhile read.
This week’s Golden Oldie:
@kr has left Stacker News, but his posts are still lurking around. He had some great book recommendation posts, and this is one of them.
