Here in the San Francisco office of KnowBetter.com, we don't see a whole lot of snow. However, we realize that many of you out there are spending your mornings shoveling sidewalks, scraping ice off of windshields and wishing that your car heater would start working a heckuva lot faster. We highly recommend that you avoid going outside into the cold, and stay in bed with a warm blanket and one of these cold weather-themed titles. Best of all, you won't have to scrape any ice off of your screen.
The KnowBetter Reading Lists are organized around a particular topic and contain links to an eclectic collection of ebooks we think you might enjoy reading. It's a great way to learn about a subject and an efficient way to find “what's out there“ in ebook form since we've done the legwork for you.
You can find our “Snow And Ice” Reading List on the Ebooks menu under “Science And Nature“ or you can click here to go there now.

Finally, a book for the Vietnam War era that captures the craziness of the period the way Catch 22 did for World War II. Enfilade is the whacky story of a young second lieutenant's first day in Vietnam. Jim Seeley spins this yarn with gusto. Each of his characters bounds onto the stage with a vigor that is difficult to duplicate. And each one contributes to 2Lt. B. S. Hope's education. But none plays a more pronounced and unimaginable role than Ching Wa, his house girl. Well, house girl may not be the best way to describe her. How do you catalogue someone who is cultured, educated, sensitive, and intelligent, but sweeps floors and shines boots for a living? The lady would be a challenge for anyone, and that is certainly the case for the young engineering graduate fresh out of the University of Tennessee.
Enfilade is a quick-moving frolic through twenty-four hours in a young lieutenant's life. There are times it will be difficult to stop laughing. There will be other times when you will want to stop and think about what was just read. What did it really mean? In either case, you won't know one way or the other until you pick up your duffle bag and climb on board. |
