Friday Evening Book Reviews

CROMWELL DIXON’S SKY CYCLE, by John Abbott Nez, tells the story of this emulator of the Wright brothers in delightful looking pictures as well as words.

A memoir of high school in the 60s, HAIL HAIL TO U CITY HIGH: A BABY BOOMER HIGH SCHOOL CLASS - THEN, NOW, AND NEXT, by Alan Spector takes high marks in St. Louis.

A playbook from the past could feel relevant in the present?  Perhaps.  Steve Weinberg gives us TAKING ON THE TRUST: HOW IDA TARBELL BROUGHT DOWN JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER AND STANDARD OIL.

The Christian Science Monitor reviews Barbara Kingsolver’s latest (which I get an advance copy of — well, okay, only one day in advance at the launch event here in Asheville) THE LACUNA.
