Curiosities of the Civil War

If you are a civil war or history buff or if you just have an interest in curious things, then Curiosities of the Civil War: Strange stories, infamous characters and bizarre events by Webb Garrison is a book you will enjoy. The book is a compilation of two books written by Mr. Garrison and is a great and easy read.
The book is broken up into parts and you can read a lot of the stories in a just a few minutes. You do not need to read the whole book to know what is being talked about from story to story. Most of the stories are short and can be read quickly. This will make a great coffee table book for people to browse through.
There are many things that most people will not know, but there are some that are general facts that those who have looked at the Civil War in depth might know.
Overall I think this book is really a nice read, gives you plenty of trivia questions with quirky answers that many will not know. I recommend this for anyone interested in the Civil War.

Nelson’s Biblical Cyclopedic Index

"Nelson’s Biblical Cyclopedic Index" is a great tool for anyone that is writing a paper, studying the bible of working on a lesson or sermon. The book arrived a bit smaller then I thought when I first requested it, but it packs a mighty punch for its size.
With over 8000 subjects, names, things, places, events and more this little book is great for anyone. When you find the topic you are looking for, there are scripture references and some even have the definition of what the word meant in Hebrew or Greek.
Overall there is not a lot to say about this little book then everyone who is looking into the Word of God should have one by their side. It helps to cross reference and give sub categories of the words you are looking up. I highly recommend this book and it should be in everyone’s collection.
