5 Forthcoming Reviews

Just a short “in the mail” post today to share five reviews you can expect to read here in the coming weeks and months:

1. First Raise a Flag: How South Sudan Won the Longest War but Lost the Peace (Oxford University Press)  

   This book just arrived in the mail yesterday. Some years ago I read a few books on the Rwandan genocide, and have had occasional interest in African history. Time to reactivate that interest and learn more about what’s been happening in Sudan. (LINK)

    

   

    
2. The 13.1 GoneForaRun running journal  

   It will be hard to top the Believe training journal I use now, but this one looks good so far. (LINK)

    

   

    
3. Old Testament Hebrew vocabulary cards  

   I learned Hebrew using these more than 10 years ago; now the Basics of Biblical Hebrew suite from Zondervan is in a new edition, so I’m re-learning with the updated cards. (LINK)

    

   

    
4. A sweet leather wallet from Galen Leather  

   It holds a pen! Cards! A notebook! Money! (money sold separately) It looks, feels, and smells amazing. (LINK)

    

   

    
5. Harvard Business Review’s new book, Why Do So Many Men Become Incompetent Leaders? (and how to fix it)  

   I just finished the book yesterday, so will probably post about that next. (LINK)
