That's good news - for Steve's sake (clearly this was a labor of love) I 
hope B&B helps sell some more! :-) The more I read, the more I like the 
first person accounts, and the more I gather from first person accounts, 
the more I recognize the value of accounts from citizens (and newspaper 
reporters - are they citizens? :-) ). Steve's book has a tremendous 
amount of accounts crammed into this book, and quite a number from 
non-military people.
