View of the Hebrews; or the Tribes of Israel in America is an 1823 book by Ethan Smith, a Congregationalist minister, who argued that Native Americans were descended from the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. The lost 10 tribes were believed to have disappeared after being taken captive by the Assyrians in the eighth century BCE. Smith's speculation was inspired by the apocryphal book II Esdras 13:41, which claims that the ten tribes settled in a far country, "where never mankind dwelt."

interesting book, poor production
Revisado: 09-08-22
The book is of interest mainly to discussions of Mormonism. The production values are not good for the audio version however. The narrator makes multiple errors in pronunciations of some basic words, including pronouncing the same word in different ways throughout the book (sometimes Gog with a short o and sometimes with a long o). Some phrases are repeated as if the editor didn't realize where they stopped recording and just started recording again, without editing. It makes for a ponderous and underwhelming production.

The first major bioterror event in the United States - the anthrax attacks in October 2001 - was a clarion call for scientists who work with "hot" agents to find ways of protecting civilian populations against biological weapons. In The Demon in the Freezer, his first nonfiction book since The Hot Zone, a number-one New York Times best seller, Richard Preston takes us into the heart of USAMRIID, the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases at Fort Detrick, Maryland.

Educational, but not too academic for a non-virologist. Mostly it made me amazed and grateful that there have not been more attempts of biological weapons attacks.
