2 books of potential interest...

Hello,

I was in Bookstop a while ago and noticed two books that could be of
potential interest.

The first I didn't buy, "We were soldiers once....and young", about the
Ia Drang valley incident in Nov. of 65 (I had stated it was in '64 in the
discussion about "The Best and Brightest"). It is written from notes and
interviews with the survivors apparently. For those who are interested in
the issues that were involved in the Vietnam War it may be of some use.

The Law Enforcement Handbook
D. Rowland, J. Bailey
ISBN 1-56619-471-7
$6.98 (in the cheap books section)

Looks to discuss a majority of police proceedures and details the items of
interest to police officers in performing their duty.

Let me recommend: "Eat the Rich" by PJ O'rourke.  Humorous introduction
to meaning of money, generation of wealth, laissez-fair, and his
experiences in
Cuba, Sweden, Albania, Tanzania learning about these.

An easy read, possibly of interest for neophytes interested in why
we have no ecash (or quantized bananas).  (Neither are answered).
