I just purchased this book to have something to read during my 44 hours in airplanes for a 4 week Christmas holiday in New Zealand.

The book –written for charity – contains content from 53 MVPs with Paul Nielsen, Kalen Delaney, Greg Low, Adam Machanic, Paul S. Randal and Kimberly L. Tripp as editors. When purchased through Manning a larger amount of the proceeds go to WarChild.
