What kind of point are you trying to make?
I read the Kon-Tiki book in my youth.
It was good, but I see no need to read it again.
Masters of Deception appears to be available as a free ebook.
I'll download it when I get a chance.
I'm still not anywhere near a Public Library and if you are
trying to imply I need to visit a library,
you are demonstrably wrong.
