mj,

I have two book recommendations for you:

Gary Kinder's "Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea," is an account of the discovery and salvage of the Central America, a steamer laden with gold that went down in the Atlantic in 1857.

amazon.com

While not a hunt for treasure, Robert Kurson's "Shadow Divers: The True Adventure of Two Americans Who Risked Everything to Solve One of the Last Mysteries of World War II," an account of the discovery of a previously unknown U-boat that sunk off the coast of New Jersey, is very good.

amazon.com

Both books are very entertaining.

The MSM will probably treat the Edwards disclosure as another example of how his personal life is at odds with his populist rhetoric. While I am not a fan of Edwards, and it is hard to imagine any circumstances that would have me casting a vote on his behalf, I think that he is getting a bad rap for being "out of touch" with the "common man," whoever that is. Perhaps I am being too charitable, but I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to his expressions of concern for those less well off. His need to be politically correct and not draw attention to his wealth will temper his public reaction to the discovery.

Regards,

Glenn
