A member has requested the book Muhammad Ali, by Thomas Hauser and I've added 
it to the Wish List.

In adding the chess books to the Wish List I noticed and making some other 
changes I happened to notice that I had a book in the Fiction section that 
belongs in the Nonfiction section, and so I moved it. It sounds reallyh 
interesting. The title is The Man in the White Sharkskin Suit by Lucette 
Lagnado. It's a nonfiction account of an Egyptian Jew's family in Egypt and 
their eventual emigration to the US. I read the reviews on Amazon--the author's 
father is a wealthy man who associates with British officers and Egyptian 
royalty. When Nassar takes control, eventually they leave Egypt and come to New 
York with only $212.--a difficult transition for a man.
