Fifty captivating ten-minute slices of lives and events – tailor-made for those in-between times: waiting for doctors, airplanes, or spouses. The format is also ideal for reading to nursing and assisted living center residents, either in a group or individual setting. The book covers such people as Nelson Mandela, J. K. Rowling, and Winston Churchill - and events like the fall of the Berlin Wall, John Brown's raid, and those great old Burma Shave highway signs.
