B. D., I'd have to disagree. But it depends on how you define current. 
David Halberstam's book "Bush at War" took a little while to come out, 
but it certainly put current events in perspective. It was darn 
prescient!

"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is 
proof
against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man [person] in
everlasting ignorance – that principle is contempt prior to 
investigation."
