This is a fabulous book, especially for those of us that have faith. Richard Dawkins has gone against Collins , as have many other scientists and he is being shunned for writing this book. Almost like the dark ages...???

Peggy Lee: A Hundred Years From Today (Washington / Young) - Recorded No...
what a sound! Peggy Lee's best song in my opinion is "Lover." no one can present it the way she does. Her song selection was not the best for her voice, I would have loved to hear more songs that suited her husky sound, like Chris Connor.
Glen Miller Video Biography (1992) part 1
This says it all, the outdoor dancing with the Glen Miller band, "At Last", it calls back an era, a time when we all gasped in recognition that our great band leader was lost on his way to entertain the troops. A time of tears, lets not forget! My second book is in the works and I am attempting to put the feelings of the war time into words that allow those not alive to experience the mood, the way of life and how we thought and acted in those days.
