The Solace of Stones
by Julie Riddle
Recommendation from BookTrib:
“A superb, eloquent memoir that sings with imagery.”
Hero of the Crossing
by Thomas W. Lippman
Review from The Times of Israel:
“Little did I know how important [the Yom Kippur War] would be in the annals of the Middle East. Thomas Lippman’s incisive book, Hero of the Crossing: How Anwar Sadat and the 1973 War Changed the World places it in its proper historical context.”
The Mayans Among Us
by Ann L. Sittig and Martha Florinda González
Praise from the Washington Independent Review of Books:
“The Mayans Among Us is a collection of heart-rending stories… an essential read.”
Monster Trek
by Joe Gisondi
Review from Ploughshares:
“…an entry into examining his own search for religious faith, a springboard for a thoughtful discussion about journalism’s responsibility, and an excuse to bring to bear his impressive travel and nature writing skills . . . While Gisondi presents his quest with humor, his preoccupation with faith also allows him to remain sympathetic to his subjects.”
