It was an important read for me at the time, though it may be too dated now--it&#39;s from 1991).<br />As for the other, thank you! And, likewise!dshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07616750784052488695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-82563500065293096732009-10-06T10:44:35.744-04:002009-10-06T10:44:35.744-04:00To ds:<br /><br />Bruce Feiler&#39;s book Abraham has me intrigued, the fact that he traveled the supposed route and countries which make up Abraham&#39;s life makes it a tempting read.<br />Will add to to my list of books to buy.<br /><br />Thank-you ds, I am adding you to my favorite blogsMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-27482729114599834512009-10-06T10:36:43.880-04:002009-10-06T10:36:43.880-04:00Hi ds,<br /><br />Thank-you for visiting my blog.<br /><br />I&#39;ll have to check out Bruce Feiler&#39;s book on amazon and see.Madeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-91659557162585451342009-10-06T10:32:39.190-04:002009-10-06T10:32:39.190-04:00Hi Oh,<br /><br />I will accept the award and see if I can come up with 10 boring things about myself :)<br /><br />Thank-you for the awardMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-24127723017900089042009-10-06T10:31:07.648-04:002009-10-06T10:31:07.648-04:00Hi Dar,<br /><br />Thank-you, it is an interesting read, the athor really did a lot of research.<br /><br />Hope today is a better day sweetie<br /><br />xoxMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-36469768523375249372009-10-06T10:28:48.858-04:002009-10-06T10:28:48.858-04:00To bermudaonion:<br /><br />I believe quite a few readers mistook this book for a Christian read.

Glad you liked it.<br /><br />This book &quot;The woman who named God&quot; is really good, it describes in as many details how people lived, it explains some of the why&#39;s like why did people live such a long time and much more. Of course like I mentionned, also the author kept strictly to the Bible, the Jewish Books and the Koran she was writing a kind of thesis. Not forcing any believes onto the reader.<br />It is a must read.<br /><br />How nice of you to visit me, I am a bad blogger lately, will try to be better :)))<br /><br />have a wonderful week-end, LarryMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-74092697396584057802009-10-02T16:27:16.854-04:002009-10-02T16:27:16.854-04:00I just finished the Gargoyle (waited till I saw it at Costco in paperback to buy it)<br />I thoroughly enjoyed it<br />Thanks for recommending such great reads!<br />Terrific!LarryGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04149803030730349791noreply@blogger.com
