Absolutely amazing
I purchased both The Journey is the Destination and The Art of Life on the same day. Over the next two days, I rotated the books as I couldn't decide on which one to read first. Jennifer obviously dove deeply into Dan's life. The stories that are told from memories collected from Dan's closest friends and his family are engaging. There is no doubt that Dan left a mark on everyone he met. ...

Humor of olden still golden
I just love this stuff. For every time our parents claim how properly they were brought up, there is a cartoon in this book that reminds me that they were every bit as bawdy as we are today. They just had better taste about it. This book starts with a history that isn't all that much to read and then single panel cartoons each page. The art is what it is and the jokes are the ones we've been ...

Good insights and a look into a skillful painter's technique
I shy away from buying art books, I've been burned by a few. You know the kind, where the artist just writes a book to get his name out and try to get more popular. The kind that are very light on technique yet show full color paintings on every page. I even decided not to buy any more books like that, but everyone kept recommending this one so I thought I'd try it. I must say, it's not ...

Oh, Betty! Pin-up beauties from the legendary Archie artist and creator of Josie & the Pussycats . For more than 40 years, Dan DeCarlo was best known for his definitive rendition of Archie Comics ' Betty and Veronica, two of comics' most beloved icons. But before joining Archie in the late 1950s and unbeknownst to many, DeCarlo was already honing his skills as a good girl artist for the Humorama line of digest magazines. Beginning in 1956, ...

This book is the authority on Filipino Martial Arts
This book contains great information on the history of Kali (arnis, escrima, etc) as well as the basic concepts and drills that are taught by Dan Inosanto. None would argue that Danny Inosanto is one of the leading authorities on Filipino martial arts and his book demonstrates his depth of knowledge. It is complete with pictures and diagrams, making a lot of the information relatively easy to ...

The Awful Truth About Selling Art: Why Galleries Never Accept Your Work and What You Can Do About It

The One Book that Tells You How to Get a Gallery
There is no other book like this one. Most `How to Sell Art' books gloss over the problem of *getting* a gallery (and you DO need a gallery!), padding the pages instead with lots of advice on things like preparing for your first show, dealing with reviewers, etc. They seem to think that walking into galleries with your slides and resume will get you in. Yeah, right. Nobody has written about ...

Great book by Dan
IN MEMORY OF MARIO PONTILLO Since the late 1970's, I have studied Mr. Lee's "Way of the Intercepting fist." I have the 1st editions of all the "best" books on Bruce's work. Dan published this in 1976, I have the original in my possession. It use to belong to Mario, whom was a great fighter that followed Bruces teachings from afar. Mario has passed on to better things, just as Bruce has. Get this ...

What an inspiring story!
This is such a wonderful story that both children and adults will enjoy. The dynamic between the brothers and the family is incredible and each character is so well written that by the end of the story, I was left wanting more. I couldn't put it down and can't wait for the next one.

Interesting but just scratches the surface
I had higher hopes for this book. From looking at the table of contents it appeared that the author had the best of intentions by trying to examine various aspects of Becker/Fagen music but he stretched himself to thin. The result is that we have very basic assessments of , for example, common chordal Dan practices supported by a few examples. And then we are on to the next topic. I have little ...

Comprehensive and Well Presented
Dan Flavin is one of the most important contemporary artist but there have never been a comprehensive book of his entire oeuvre. We finally have a book that examines all of his works, and written by Michael Govan who have followed Dan Flavin for the last decade. Dan Flavin's works are fluorescent lights and it have often been difficult to photograph his works showing all the nuances, but in this ...

Excellent book for SD guitar/kybd freaks
This book is outstanding, almost every damn note (except basslines) is transcribed here, and dead-on accurate, too. The 'Complete Transcribed Scores' book is wrong in a lot of places, but I haven't found a wrong note yet, and I've had this book for years. Tabs to my SD favs "Gaucho" and "Don't Take Me Alive" are a real treat.

Truly Profound
I bought this book upon it's release in 1997. I can remember allowing the contents of this memoir to captivate me for hours on end. I lent my copy to a friend shortly thereafter and subsequently forgot about it. I recently ordered a replacement and I must say, this book is even more compelling than I ever remembered. Dan Eldon was a profound visionary, an articulate statesman and a devoted ...
