We were just wandering around an antique shop and came across The Voyaging Stars by David Lewis. Published in 1978. ISBN 0-00-216404-3 Has anybody read both this book and We the Navigators ? I wonder how they compare. Looking forward to my bedtime reading ! Aubrey. At 04:11 AM 2/6/2003, you wrote: >Hello > >I've been lurking on this list for several months.
