BOOK REPORTS—

Enslaved by Jesse Sage and Liora Kasten editors

An anthology of eight, modern day, first person accounts of human slavery in Sudan, China, Lebanon, Egypt, Belarus, Mauritania and the US. Yes, the United States!

The Gods of Newport by John Jakes

A meandering peek at the social life of affluent Newport, RI in the late 19th century. Out of respect for the genre of historical novels I plodded through all 376 pages of this publication.

Digital Fortress by Dan Brown

A smokin’, high-tech spy thriller regarding the National Security Agency and electronic intelligence gathering. Don’t start this book unless you have time to enjoy a great, uninterrupted read.

Somebody’s Gotta Say It by Neal Boortz

Boortz is a talk show host with a sobering look at where we are and where we likely are going as a country. If you are a liberal democrat, don’t bother with this one—believe me. If you are otherwise, hop aboard for a sizzling ride.

Speaking of liberal democrats; have you seen the sensational, privately created video regarding what’s-her-name’s candidacy for *gasp* president? Enjoy it here:
