Books in Paperback

I spent the afternoon at the Barnes and Noble at Bandera and 1604 and was pleased to see that James Brady's book "Why Marines Fight" was out in paperback. In case you don't remember, I wrote a book review on it that appeared in the San Antonio Express-News in December 2007. What was special to me was that on the top of the book's back cover was a "pull quote" from my review credited to the Express-News. Even after all these book reviews, seeing a "pull quote" on a book never gets old!

I also saw that Geraldo's Rivera's book "His Panic" is also out in paperback. Although it didn't feature a "pull quote," I reviewed it and urged people to read it. If you haven't picked up a copy of it, I strongly encourage you to buy it and read it soon.
