4.0 out of 5 stars Why can't I order this book here?, December 7, 2006

This review is from: 8:50 am October 8, 2005 (Stories of Hope and Courage from the Earthquake in Pakistan) (Paperback)

I'm a Pakistani living in the States and wanted to order a couple of copies of this book because the proceeds are going back to one of the best organizations in Pakistan - and maybe even all of south asia - but it says it's currently unavailable. Can I request that you stock this book? It's going towards a really important effort and there are so many of us expat Pakistanis who would like to contribute to the relief effort in some way!
