The
world of books is the most remarkable creation of man. Nothing else that he
builds ever lasts. Monuments fall, nations perish, civilizations grow old and
die out, and after an era new races build others. But in the world of books
are volumes that have seen this happen again and again and yet live on, still
young, still as fresh as the day they were written, still telling men's hearts
of the heart of men centuries dead.

 Character Is Destiny : Inspiring Stories Every Young Person Should Know and Every Adult Should
Remember (Hardcover)
"McCain's latest volume uses biography as an illustration of virtue, but this time the senator broadens his palette significantly, telling 34 stories of heroes whose lives embody qualities ranging from honesty and loyalty to curiosity and enthusiasm. At the root of them all, he says, is a willingness to stay true to one's conscience against all challenges."
"Although he is reaching out to a younger readership, McCain's plain but sincere language does not condescend to his audience."

For those who love heart-pounding action, there’s Roy
Hayes’ new novel, The Last Days of Las Vegas ($14.95,
Solothurnli Corporation, softcover) which takes the
espionage genre to a higher level, involving thirty
significant characters, 45 secondary ones, and a story
that takes place in 25 different places, large and
small, including London, Lisbon, Maastricht, Los
Angeles, and Las Vegas, to name just a few. There are 50
chapters and you will feel like you have visited these
places by the time you are through. Hayes knows how to
set a plot in motion and his previous novels have all
drawn high praise from critics. His main character is
described as a reluctant spy, a tad burned out and more
cynical than ever. He’s no James Bond. He’s real. Ask
yourself what it would be like if someone wanted to nuke
Las Vegas? You need to jump into this book with plenty
of time to read so you can follow its intricacies. To
