1.American GroundAmerican Ground
from North Point Press
Price: $9.99

Customer Review:
William Langewiesche's "American Ground" reads like something Edward R. Murrow might have written, if he had been born on the planet Vulcan and beamed down to the site of the World Trade Center right after the 9-11 attacks. Emotionally detached, with a faint hint of contempt for the heavy passions... more info

2.The Outlaw SeaThe Outlaw Sea
from North Point Press
Price: $9.99

Customer Review:
This book covers a wide range of subjects related to shipping and explains that many aspects of life at sea are unregulated, or regulated only on a voluntary or theoretical level, and that consequently, maritime life is just as dangerous as it has ever been. The book discusses flags of convenience,... more info

3.The Outlaw Sea: A World of Freedom, Chaos, and CrimeThe Outlaw Sea: A World of Freedom, Chaos, and Crime
from North Point Press

Customer Review:
The Outlaw Sea is about the immensity of the sea and the essential lawlessness of commercial shipping. There is far more ocean than there is land. "International Waters" are just that - not part of any country.
The book consists of four main sections. The first is about freighters in general,... more info

4.The Atomic Bazaar: Dispatches from the Underground World of Nuclear TraffickingThe Atomic Bazaar: Dispatches from the Underground World of Nuclear Trafficking
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Price: $9.10

Customer Review:

The author gets off to a really bad start, which really made me wonder if I'd just wasted money on this book. If he did this little research on how an A-bomb goes off, what the hell sort of research was the rest of the book like? This really bothered me. I saw some evidence he pooched it.more info

5.Sahara Unveiled: A Journey Across the DesertSahara Unveiled: A Journey Across the Desert
from Vintage
Price: $11.66

Customer Review:
Northern Africa is generally not easy to learn about. There just isn't that much information out there. When I ran across Sahara Unvieled, I found it to be a very interesting travelogue. Not a place I would want to go! Only problem with this book, though, is the ending: It just stopped, mid-stride.... more info

A very good read about the tense and diverse relations that exist at the Mexican - U.S. border. Author is a good storyteller, and offers great detail. A must for anyone seeking to understand our neighbor to the South.

7.Inside the Sky: A Meditation on FlightInside the Sky: A Meditation on Flight
from Vintage
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
With the subtitle "Meditations on Flight," this promised to be a thoughtful look at the wonder of flight, or something along those lines. As a reader of Atlantic Monthly for many years, I knew that William Langewiesche had been writing articles for them about aviation. I remembered one article... more info
