Books I have on order

;

 

   

   

 

 

  

Eric Hansen's book are very readable and entertaining travelogues. Of course, I could've written my own book about trading mistakes but it'll be good to read about them from others for a change. "Super Trader" is just wishful thinking while "Never Cry Wolf" will prepare me for the eventual viewing of the movie. "Off the Road" is a modern-day Chaucer's tale of Europe's oldest form of packaged tour, the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. "The Philosopher and the Wolf" is a great nature story while offering, as it sub-title 'Lessons From the Wild on Love, Death And Happiness' suggests, profound philosophical insights. Finally, "Who Ordered This Truckload of Dung?" is not a reflection on the books I've ordered but a title which Padma requested.
