Question

I realize that these are diverse in nature, but I do attend a liberal arts institution. Well, I have three matters that are not pressing in nature but rapidly will become important. I may have to return here after refining these. So, here we go:

1) Are there any places that you know of to which one could refer that would provide *lists* of some of the famous people involved with Islam?

2) I have no idea what I should investigate from the American Revolutionary War.

3) Could you suggest a book about a modern "jeremiad" against contemporary American consumer culture?

P.S. Many thanks in advance! You all do a wonderful service on the behalf of many! I give gratitude and appreciation toward you all!

Answer 1

A quick Google search for famous Muslims produced this comprehensive list.

For the Revolutionary War, why not investigate the people who opposed independence?

The best place to look for a book is your library.

You're welcome -- and thanks for the compliments.
