"Never use a big word when a little filthy one will do."
Author Michael Crichton was born in Chicago, Illinois on this date in 1942.
My favorite of his books was Jurassic Park. If you've only seen the movie I'd still recommend reading the book which is equally good but has more scientific depth to it.
I spent some time in Southern France this summer on my honeymoon and really loved it there. Afterward, a couple of people recommended Timeline by Michael Crichton, as it is set in the same region that I stayed in. Pretty good book so far. I'm about 3/4 of the way through and plan on reading Jurassic Park and The Lost World next.
