Recommendation: Mosque by David Macaulay

Mosque by David Macaulay

http://www.houghtonmifflinbooks.com/authors/macaulay/author.shtml gives you information about the author.

October • Full-color illustrationsAll Ages • All Grades96 pages • 9 x 12 ISBN 0-618-24034-9 Nonfiction Picture Book

I labelled this entry recommendation rather than review. #1, it's by a mainstream author and mainstream publisher, Houton Mifflin. I enjoyed reading it, and I'm planning to pass it to a friend of mine who likes architecture and works in construction. It's a wonderful gift for anybody with those kinds of interests. I purchased my copy at AlHambra Productions, www.alhambraproductions.com.

The Saudi-US Relations Information Service produced a review: http://www.saudi-us-relations.org/newsletter2004/saudi-relations-interest-08-20.html.

For all you people who love gadgets, I came across a cool site which describes how things work:
