3. James Michener. My faves are _Centennial_ and _Alaska_. Also

Apollo 13. I found it at a rummage sale. It has a photo from the movie on the front, so I thought it was one of those "based on the script" books. It turns out that it is the book Jim Lovell (with a ghost) wrote, originally titled Lost Moon. I don't like some things about the ghost writer's style, but the story -- even though we know how it turns out -- is well written. Riveting.

Also, catch Sara Paretsky. Her character V.I. Warshawski is my heroine. :hi:
