Marcela Atria marceatria — an unflinching memoir about being the "lucky" one in a car accident-- a compelling read.

Carolina Barbosa carolinabar — Midway through this book I began asking myself, "Why have I never read Patrick O'Brian before now?" "Master and Commander" is the first book in Mr. O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series, and will not be the last I will read. It shares the name of the Hollywood movie which was nominated for Best Picture a few years back, but that is all they share. I do not mean this as a knock to the movie or the book (as both are excellent), but merely to make plain that those expecting the plot from the movie will be surprised that it is not contained here. This book takes place entirely in the Mediterranean during the Napoleonic War, and is principally concerned with how Captain Aubrey and Ships Surgeon Maturin meet and become friends. In fact, it is this unlikely friendship between a politically conservative, Tory Captain (prejudiced against all Catholics) and an Irish Protestant passivist, who escaped from Ireland after the British defeat of O'Connell and the "United Irishmen" (whom he supported) only to end-up (in circumstances the book details) serving on a British vessel in Spain (yup) which makes this book so unique and wonderful. The other thing that makes this book unique is it's structure. Most books of historical military fiction center around one battle for their climatic moment, but this book is a series of events where the main characters are not always involved in the major battles. This makes the book seem a little more "real" compared to other books where the main characters are always the hero; and therefore, all action has to be centered around them (as though they were super human). Indeed, finding what is "human" and "vulnerable" in his characters personalities and in the plot itself seems to be Mr. O'Brian's main task. Overlaying that with action, adventure, and considerable (and fascinating) nautical detail are his second, third, and fourth tasks. He accomplishes all, admirably.

AMNH is a massive place with a great history, a history that isn’t as well organized as Preston’s book would let you believe. The institutional memory is spotty, and not well-organized. I have spent some days digging around old files and found some odd things myself, but not about objects that are quite as famous as the ones in this book. And so I am thankful to have this resource. Preston does a very good job in creating quick biographical portraits of the important players in the museum. I don’t know if anyone involved in “A Night at the Museum” has read Dinosaurs in the Attic but they certainly missed out on a lot of great opportunities for real characters, stories, and events, more than Teddy Roosevelt and a gum-chewing statue. I have used this book as a guide to some of the less celebrated objects that are on display. It is very enjoyable to read about an object one night, and see it the next day at work. This book puts the museum’s cursory label decks to shame, not that I blame the AMNH editorial staff (whom I work with) but rather I blame how museum artifacts are consumed. I don’t think many people would stop to read 500 words about a diorama, no matter how many people died to produce it. I’m very glad to have read Dinosaurs in the Attic, and I wish that there were a few more volumes to wander through, because, to be perfectly honest, the museum is just too damn big, and even I can’t get into all of the rooms.
