Good read
Very enjoyable read for all those interested in aviation archaeology or wreck hunting. I'm not familiar with any of the crashes mentioned in the book but found the writeups to be well detailed with lots of photos. Of special interest were the crashes where the survivors returned to the site and shared their thoughts on what had happened to them. Will sit very nicely on my shelf with my other ...

The Holy Koran: An Interpretive Translation from Classical Arabic into Contemporary English
Mohamed K. Jasser

Acacia Publishing, Inc., 2008

From the Introduction: This translation of the Koran differs from other available English translations, in numerous respects.

Fantastic!
Once I began reading this book I could not put it down! A beautifully written book that really transports you deep into the author's innermost thoughts and feelings. It was so real to me. So many books explain the "what to expect when you are expecting" but none comes as close as this one to really expressing what a women feels when something doesn't go as she expected. I highly recommend this ...
