Lyrics: 1962-200125 reviews
Bob Dylan

Simon & Schuster, 2004

He told me one time: "I'm a poet, not a singer."
I became a Dylan fan in the early 60's. While In Junior College and working for the student newspaper, I was assigned the task of interviewing him - without an appointment - when he came to perform in the town where that JC was. I grabbed a tape recorder, sat with some friends to create a short list of questions we thought would be fun for him to respond to - and on the assigned evening, I set ...

A Savage War of Peace: Algeria 1954-1962 (New York Review Books Classics)44 reviews
Alistair Horne

NYRB Classics, 2006

Positively 6 stars
Alistair Horne is one of the preeminent historians of the 20th Century. I've read several of his books, including the entire trilogy on the three Franco - German wars. I've found each of his books excellent, but this one will always rate as his best - for the complexity of the material that he has mastered. In the preface is an impressive list of the principal actors interviewed. He acknowledged ...
  
  











  



  
Paris 1962: Yves Saint Laurent and Dior, Christian Dior, The Early Collections5 reviews
Jerry Schatzberg, Julia Morton

Rizzoli, 2008

Chic, Informative, and Scintillating
Great pics, great text and a really wonderful tribute to the masters of haute couture from the glory days or fashion. A must for anyone who treasures and thinks about the sublteties and wonder of those who preceded the charlatans who are producing fodder in the name of fashion in modern times. Designers take note.
  
  











  



  
Roman Catholic Daily Missal (1962)19 reviews
Angelus Press

Angelus Press, 2004

The Restoration of a Dignified Tradtion and a Milestone in the Restoration of the Latin Mass
The reissue of THE ROMAN CATHOLIC DAILY MISSAL (2007)is a milestone in the restoration of the Tridentine Mass. The Latin Missal is based in part on the Latin Missal produced in 1570 as a result of The Council of Trent (1545-1563). This Missal was used by millions of Catholics until the "reforms" of Vatican II (1963) and the issue of missals in English which largely replaced the Latin missals. ...
  
  











  



  
1962 Roman Missal - Black Leather6 reviews

Baronius Press, 2004

Excellent!
This particular Roman Missal published by Baronius is my favorite of the several that I've seen/used. It is extensive and has lots of content to include traditional devotions and prayers that I didn't see in other missals. It doesn't have the Mass notes some users like (including myself) or the explinations of things like priestly garments etc. that are in the front of some...So, I would ...
  
  











  



  
Cuban Missile Crisis, 1962: A National Security Archive Documents Reader (Revised) (National Security Archive ...2 reviews
Laurence Chang, Peter Kornbluh, ...

New Press, 1998

The Messy Details of a Crisis...
The National Security Archive's "The Cuban Missile Crisis, 1962" is not for everyone. The casual reader will find the declassified intelligence reports, minutes of meetings, and executive correspondence to be boring if not indecipherable. The more knowledgeable reader without specific background in the Cuban Missile Crisis may miss the importance of the many details revealed here. For the ...

Charles M. Schulz

Fantagraphics Books, 2006

High quality, gift for my son
These heirloom quality, hardbound books are well received by my middle school aged son. Peanuts has a timeless feel, and the complete run in these books are a great tribute to this comic. I am buying all of the books in sequence for my son, and I think they will be enjoyed forever.

Philip Roth

Library of America, 2005

Where greatness began
Philip Roth is a giant of American literature, and this select volume by the Library Of America is a perfect addition to everyone who cares about great literature and likes to see where the greatness began and how it grows in the world of literature. Philip Roth's stature is right up there with Twain, Whitman, Hawthorne, Updike, Joyce Carol Oates, and Faulkner. He writes with clarity, and honesty ...
  
  











  



  
Armies of the Vietnam War 1962-75 (Men-at-Arms)2 reviews
Philip Katcher

Osprey Publishing, 1980

Superseded by Later More Detailed Works
Though I have had this book for a long time, I have seldom looked at it. As a specialist in this period and a veteran of the Cold War Army I have studied this period in real time since the fifties. In any case, the book is now obsolescent except for the color illustrations. At the age of 23 it has long been superseded by the works of Shelby Stanton (c.f.) and others. The author did serve in ...
  
  











  



  
Nixon, Vol. 2: The Triumph of a Politician 1962-19726 reviews
Stephen E. Ambrose

Touchstone, 1990

Character Matters
As usual, Stephen E. Ambrose is flawless in this middle edition of the Nixon trilogy. The book is quite long and detailed to a fault. The detail includes huge quantities of actual quotes, painting a picture of Nixon about as clear as one can get on any man. The picture I got was of a man not well suited for the presidency. Intelligent, clever, creative, bold, knowledgeable on world affairs, yes. ...
  
  











  



  
The Complete Peanuts 1961-196219 reviews
Charles M. Schulz

Fantagraphics Books, 2006

How consistant can you get?
This volume of The Complete Peanuts cover the years 1961 and 1962 in their entireties. The most noteworthy event of this book is the introduction of Frieda, the girl with the "naturally curly hair". Soon after her debut, the running gag where Frieda tries to get Snoopy to chase rabbits is used for the first time. Also introduced at this time was Frieda's cat Faron, who only made a few ...
  
  











  



  
Community and Organization in the New Left, 1962-1968: The Great Refusal
Wini Breines

Rutgers University Press, 1989

Did New Left activists have an opportunity to start a revolution that they simply could not bring off? Was their rejection of conventional forms of political organization a fatal flaw or were the apparent weaknesses of the movement -- the lack of central authority, the distrust of politics -- actually hidden strengths? Wini Breines traces the evolution of the New Left movement through the Free Speech Movement, Students for a Democratic Society ...

The Beatles/1962-1966 (Bass Recorded Versions)2 reviews
Beatles

Hal Leonard Corporation, 2002

Very Good. But...
It's alright of course, but some harmonies are not 100% correct and it would be better if it could come with audio CD with the bass parts. From 0 to 100. Maybe 85.
