la* Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Ever since I finished reading the excellent Manhunt, I've been on a slight Civil War-era jag for books. LOVED that book, and I had to read another Lincoln book after I finished it, too. I picked this one (which I highly, highly recommend): I am reading this now, and enjoying it immensely: Link to post Share on other sites

Books get underlined? I thought they got the italification treatment. Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Books get underlined? I thought they got the italification treatment.You may be correct. I think the rule is when handwritten, you should underline a word that's supposed to be italicized, unless it's in a title. When printed, it's italicized. Or something. Dammit... ....CALIBER!!!!!

awatt Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Klay by Michael Chabon. Not sure if this has already been mentioned here but a real treat to read. Well-deserved Pulitzer, I think. Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Books get underlined? I thought they got the italification treatment.In both APA and MLA, book titles are italicized, but underlining is an acceptable alternative, especially when using a typewriter. Link to post Share on other sites
