Kozol

Hi all,

I've just finished Kozol's new book "The Shame of the Nation" and I posted some great summaries on my delicious account: http://del.icio.us/lnielsen/Books. There you'll read two summaries and hear two Kozol interviews. I think the interviews and summary give a great overview of the book.

Enjoy.

Book ordering

I thought it would be interesting to read books in non-traditional formats. Two of our books offer this option.

We can order the Kozol book as an audio book. I subscribed to Audible books and as a promotion you get the book free if you sign up for $9.95.

I have the People's History of the US digitally which you can download free at: http://historyisaweapon.com/zinnapeopleshistory.html.
