I ordered a book from International Books thru Amazon, yet amazon has no record, but I have the email confirming order?

Amazon's policy is that you should contact the seller and try to work things out. If they refuse to help you, then click on the HELP link at the top of every Amazon page, and then click on the CONTACT US link. Get the order number from the confirmation e-mail and use it to try to settle this problem.

Amazon is very quick to get rid of a seller who doesn't deliver.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
