1.		The Best Game Ever: Giants vs. Colts, 1958, and the Birth of the Modern NFL from Atlantic Monthly Press List Price: $23.00 Price: $15.64 You Save: $7.36 (32%) Customer Review: Bowden always delivers. This is a quick read of the '58 NFL Championship Game. It's like watching a documentary of the game on ESPN Classic. A little game action then switch to a little background on some of the colorful personalities of the GIANTS or COLTS. All in all it delivers and entertains.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		Killing Pablo: The Hunt for the World's Greatest Outlaw from Penguin (Non-Classics) List Price: $16.00 Price: $10.88 You Save: $5.12 (31%) Customer Review: Once I begin a book I usually finish it, even if it's not that good. But I couldn't finish this book. I read about one third and then quit. It was so boring. It was more about politics than drugs. I guess I was expecting something along the lines of Doctor Dealer (a great read!).	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War from Signet Price: $7.99 Customer Review: Great read, action packed. Some parts make you want to cringe, others make you want to cry. I will say that it can get a little gruesome at times and the violence does get to be numbing after a while.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Doctor Dealer: The Rise and Fall of an All-American Boy and His Multimillion-Dollar Cocaine Empire from Grove Press List Price: $15.00 Price: $10.20 You Save: $4.80 (32%) Customer Review: The book is about Larry Lavin, a dentist, family man, and cocaine dealer on the side (!). The book is well written. Moves along very nicely. This story goes to show what greed and discontentment can do to a person. Here you have a guy who has a lot going for him, but risks it all by dealing cocaine.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Guests of the Ayatollah: The Iran Hostage Crisis: The First Battle in America's War with Militant Islam from Grove Press List Price: $15.00 Price: $10.20 You Save: $4.80 (32%) Customer Review: Reads like a thriller novel, but is 100% true. If you are completely unfamiliar with the history of Iran from about 1945-1979 you should probably spend at least a few minutes learning about that before reading this book. The book jumps right into the drama of the hostage crisis without providing... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

True, it is written as a fast-paced narrative, and flows well. You might call it an "easy read" as a result.
