Default A suggestion for books?

I just bought "The Will to Believe," and "Human Immortality" by William James. Excellent if you wish.

If nobody has a different solution, perhaps we could turn to that.

How about this one?

The Cross and the Crescent: Christianity and Islam from Muhammad to the Reformation by Fletcher

It's only 183 pages

Is it all in boldface like that? 'Cause that would get old after a few pages. But other than that I'm good with most anything.

I reccomend this book, if only to support the father of one of BYU's all-time greats (Ute fans may remember his son as the recipient of the John Beck pass on the last play of the 2006 BYU-Utah game). It even sounds like something the classical nerds on this board might appreciate.
