Books & Authors - January 2007

I've read the Elizabeth Elliot books, including the story of her husband's death. I know of "In the Presence of my enemies." but wonder if you could recommend some other ones.
Please serious answers only! And no debates on Christianity or why you hate missionaries. And no, I will not be reading, "The Poisonwood Bible" or "Dr. America..." If I wanted to read that sort of thing, I'd go buy "The National Enquirer."

I don't stick to any particular genre - I like fiction and non-fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, thrillers, horror, who-done-its, history, biography.
My obsessions are the American Civil War, Tudor England, and Ireland, both history and folklore/myth.

I am returning over seas and have had no luck in finding a writer. I promised the guys in my unit that I would try to fine the writer who sent a manuscript of their fantasy book to a soldier and then was circulated around through all us. All we know is that the books name is The Crystal of Light and the writers last name is meyer. We wanted to tell them that by the time my unit recieved it, it had been divided up into chapters, which was a good thing because not all of us can read that fast. But back to purpose of my search. When I came home for leave I promised I would find a way to let this writer know that their book filled alot of lonely days and on rough days helped us forget. We know that there is a second book and wanted to fine this writer to ask if they would send us the second book if they have finished. If anyone knows who this is have them email me and I will provide the information. and if no one knows maybe the newyork times can find out for us.
Thanks
Sgt Anderso

I wrote a book that all my friends and teachers think should be published. I know it's hard, but I'd like to try.

I have been doing some research on writing a self help book for parents. iUniverce called me and really like my concept after explaining my vision for the book. Has anyone had dealings with iUniverse? I did not make any commitments with them yet and would be grateful for feedback/direction with this publisher.They sound too good to be true.

I need help finding two books.

1. Prince Ombra - would the book stores still sell this book? It was published in the early 80's and was my favorite growing up. It's not a kid's book by any means.

2. I have no idea the tile of the second book. I think it's Sarah By The Sea, maybe. It's about two sisters, one was always sick and the other one grew up hating her for having all the attention. I can't remember anything else and it's starting to bug me cause I want to.

Please help.

Does anyone know, Is Clive Cussler a freemason. I have read a number of his books and keep coming across terminology and phrases that come straight from the works. I am certain in my mind that he has to be a freemason, which makes me want to read his books even more.
