Customer Reviews

ends up really turning you on to the books in this anthology

I'll echo the first reviewer's sentiments about the general quality of the selections: mostly excellent, some even masterful (especially Hynes' "Flights of Passage"). I would like to read the full-length versions of at least five of the 12 or so selections Willis excerpted. If you especially like oral history, or first-person accounts, this is a good sampling to whet your appetite for other, complete works.
