Every book lover knows the thrill. A hot summer day. A porch swing, a hammock, a long curve in the beach -- and a great, transporting read.
Maybe it's lords and ladies that first took you there. Or Spanish romance. High plains gunfire. Down and dirty spies. High-blown history. Distant lands.
This hour we're asking top book mavens for their recommendations this summer. We've got a white tiger, and fear and yoga in New Jersey. Black flies, a black dove, Gandhi, Churchill, and 1434.
This hour, On Point: Great summer reads, '08.
