This news is a few days old by now, but Amazon now has a neat search feature that allows users to find words within books.
For example, I searched for the words "Midland, Texas" and came up with a list of 194 books containing those words. First on the list was the out of print book The Midland Discovery: A Report on the Pleistocene Human Remains from Midland, Texas by Fred Wendorf.
"Odessa, Texas" brings up a list of 112 books. However, only 18 books contained both "Midland, Texas" and "Odessa, Texas", among which was Barbara Bush: a Memoir.
Interesting, huh?
