Steamboats

I subscribe to the motto that it's never too late to be behind the times, so I have no shame in saying that I've just caught up with Caleb Crain's superb blog, Steamboats Are Ruining Everything. In addition to updating readers on Crain's publications, it is also an acute running commentary on those literary and historical areas Crain knows so well. It's probably the best written blog I think I've ever come across; each post is meticulous. And don't miss the incredibly touching tribute, with photos, to his late dog, Lota.
