Go ahead and submit them, Brian. I'll validate the
Shackleton one if it's interestingly written and if no
one else does it before I get to it (I have several to
do before that). I enjoyed the TV special with the
same title. Was it based on the book?

Are the others interestingly written for the lay
person or very scholarly and dry?
