I've read Krakauer's other books and all three are excellent (Into the Wild, Into Thin Air, Under the Banner of Heaven) This one might be as excellent. Has anyone heard about it? Krakauer is kinda left so I'm thinking it won't be a white wash. http://www.amazon.com/Where-Men-Win-Glory-Odyssey/dp/0385522266/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1251169696&sr=8-1edited to add link

1. Krakauer does thorough homework, no disputing that |
|
His works read well, too. He can dissect a complex or muddy event and spin a seamless story. He's perfect to write this important story. I look forward to reading it.

He'll make a gripping read out of the story, I'm sure.
