Juan Williams

Three Rivers Press, 2007

A voice of reason.

+ hits the nail on the head

This book was one that far exceeded my expectations. I came in to expecting to find the work of an elitist conservative what I found instead was the calm voice of an everyday normal man. He is no patsy either for slick attempts to repair race relations even going as far as to strike down idiotic ...

Diane Duane

Star Trek, 1989

The history of Vulcan

+ A Classic
+ Overtaken by canon, but still a good read
