I love your interpretation of the prompt fraud and your reason for reading Ferguson's book. I also am fascinated by that Australian law that compels lawyers to help anyone who seeks them out in the order they were received. I'm American and people are obsessed with free will over here. 😆😉Great TBR! Happy reading!
Here in the states November is also Native American month (maybe could be expanded to Indigenous month?), so I’ve got both fiction and non-fiction reads pulled off my shelf…a short middle school text ‘The Long Walk: the Forced Navajo Exile’ by the Navajo/Dineh university professor Jennifer Denetdale as a brief framework for her adult history of the event (in the mail). I’m also reading a fiction work by Chippewa author Angeline Boulley entitled ‘Firekeeper’s Daughter’. Also on my TBR is ‘Guests of the Sheik’ by Elizabeth Warnock Fernea which has been on my shelf for over 20 years (!). I look forward to the end of the month and hearing how you get on with your choices. And ‘poor’ Niall gets kicked down the road again. LOL I don’t blame you; as much as I too try to read ‘the other side’ I also tend to kick them down the road.
Empire sounds like a very challenging read. Good luck for actually tackling it. I love Nonfiction November. I'm reading quite a bit of nonfiction anyway, so it is always fun to participate. The Precariat sounds very interesting. Thanks for the recommendation.
I just finished a book on The Knights Templar and I want to read In Search of Mary Shelley by Fiona Sampson as well as London Labour, London Poor by Henry Mayhew. I don't know if those can apply to the prompts.

Some great rec, quiet interested in Standing and Robertson’s books. Loved the explanation on barrister and solicitor too.
