1.The Wreck of the Medusa: The Most Famous Sea Disaster of the Nineteenth CenturyThe Wreck of the Medusa: The Most Famous Sea Disaster of the Nineteenth Century
from Atlantic Monthly Press
Price: $16.50

Customer Review:
I first became interested with the Medusa in an Art history class and began researching it on my own. I saw in an issue of ARTNEWS that this book came out and I immediately found it on amazon.

Price: $14.95

Customer Review:
Muslim Brotherhoods and Politics in Senegal is truly one of a kind. What I liked most about the book was the subject matter and content. The book truly gives a view of how Islam, brotherhood, and politics look like in Senegal. What I liked least was that seemed like it was over simplifying the... more info

The book is generally exciting and full of the horrors of the wrecking of the Medusa and the stuggles of the castaways.

Customer Review:
There is not much literature or information available on street children and so I was very excited to find this publication; though *very* short (56 pages in all and they're not filled with the same amount of text as most books), Street Children in Senegal provides interesting information and 18... more info
