From the Intergalactic Space Station, Ali peered through the orbit
meter set on Alexandria, Egypt, and began to sweat. Seeing the
orange flames soaring higher and higher, he imagined the sound of
crackling as the precious old parchments vanished. The very
destruction of recorded knowledge was at hand He explained to the
city fathers. King Alexander the Great did not have this built to
lose it now "We must find Zanzibar and his zany crew of Sentence
Constructors They can save what we know. From a look ahead in time,
the diffusion of English is as widespread as a fresh carpet of
winter snow. With the zany crew, proficient in English, this time
the sentences can grow." A story recounted in a fanciful way using
the reality of the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, Egypt,
more than two thousand years ago and its reconstruction along with
the books therein to share with readers the mechanics of English
sentence construction by rebuilding the books in the Library of
Alexandria and creating new ones.
