Bitter Sea

I thought the panel discussion was interesting and it was nice that we had the author of the Bitter Sea come to our school.  Having said that I think that the author Charles really likes to talk a lot and he sort of rambled on.  He seems to have written an entire book about himself and it seems like he enjoys talking about himself.  The book itself was somewhat interesting though.  I can see why it would be given to Freshmen because it is about a young man who needs to face many new environments.
