[1]NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)–Lisa Beamer’s new book, “Let’s Roll,” premiered in the top-selling spot in August in LifeWay Christian Stories. Beamer is the wife of Todd Beamer, who was among the passengers who forced a Sept. 11 hijacked plane to crash in western Pennsylvania rather than Washington.
In the paperback list, books by Stormie Omartian held the top four spots.
