I have a copy of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf in the original German and can't read it, even if I wanted to. It came in a pile of books I bought at a rummage sale. It's in good condition and has an inscription in the front to a couple getting married.

Decmocracy she said. Dose anybody have a definition? Equal rights for all special privilleges for none I quoted Then Miss Gates said Thats the differences between America and Germany we are a Decmocarcy and Germany is a Dictatorship she said. Over here we don't believe in persecuting anyboy. Persecution comes from people who are prejudiced

Topic Question
After Tom Robinson's trial, do you think Scout believe that America is very different from Germany?

Did you like the movie? I was gonna read the book, but after the movie I just saw a lot of badly executed cliche's. Eragon was a farm boy like luke skywalker. He was an abandoned child with mysterious parents, like Harry Potter. There were legends of great dragon riders, the return of which are mankind's only hope, like Dragonlance.

Sexy enchantress, old warrior with a secret, dark mysterious friend whom they don't know if they can trust? C'mon for all the hype, the book must have been better than this right?

I am thinking of writing a book of my life experiences. My parents emigrated from India in the 1960s and so live by their Eastern traditions. I was born in England and went through the usual education system and am now a graduate. I have found it difficult at times to fit in both the eastern and western cultures. I would now like to write a book outlining my experience and difficulties I had in this, and I am sure, a lot of asian youngsters had the same difficulties as me and this book would prove to be an interesting read to them, in that they can relate it to their own difficulties.

The problem is that I know nothing about book writing. How do I go about it? How long would it take for the book to come on the 'market'? How do I make sure that I am using the proper English grammer? Is there a website that I can go to which outlines the steps involved in writing a book? Finally, how can I tell that my book will be profitable or is it just a gamble that I have to take?

I'm going to take a long trip, and I can't decide between these two books.
You can also suggest some classic alternatives. My favourite era is the 1930s-1950s. Just make sure it's thick ;)

In the Dragon Lance Series (Dragons of a Summer Flame) there are references made to other adventers with the characters, for instance Caramon traveling in time or Raistlin and Lady Crysania entering the abys, Raistlin sacrificing himself to close the abys, or Gilthanas being ill fated. Which books do I read to get these adventures?
