books by Bill Neal     books:       Bill Neal's Southern Cooking6 reviews Bill Neal The University of North Carolina Press, 1989 Southerners Rejoice! My husband and I have had this cookbook for several years, and given many copies of it as gifts. Bill Neal hasn't simply listed recipes, he has written a historical summary of many traditional southern foods. All are interesting, and most shed light on how certain recipes came into being. That said, the 150+ recipes themselves are terrific! Our favorites are Herb Crust Pork Loin with Onion ...             The Bloody Legacy of Pink Higgins: A Half Century of Violence in Texas1 review Bill O'Neal Eakin Press, 1999 Rip-Roaring good read This book is a must for all western historians. It chronicles the life of a man not known by many. The book takes the reader through the life of a brave frontiersman. The West Texas atmosphere is well represented. The book contains photos of a time long past. Being from this area I found the book very interesting. It kept me wanting more and more.             Biscuits, Spoonbread, and Sweet Potato Pie5 reviews Bill Neal The University of North Carolina Press, 2003 A Real Keeper I have a several thousand cookbook collection - spanning some 40+ years. I have read each one and KNOW them. This book grabs your attention and holds it. I have a Top 100 Cookbooks (my very, very favorite ones) bookcase. A book has to pass rigid cooking/baking tests to get there. This book is there!! Note: I have had FUN doing this all these years. The recipe for "A Good White Bread" is ...             Getting Away With Murder on the Texas Frontier: Notorious Killings & Celebrated Trials3 reviews Bill Neal Texas Tech University Press, 2006 Getting Away with Murder on the Texas Frontier by Bill Neal Bill Neal did a great job writing this novel. With his background in the legal system and "top-notch" research, his book was excellent in both reading and historical accuracy. When I found out that one of the novel's character's was my grandfather, I was intrigued even further! I hope that Bill Neal will write other books similar to this one. The WILD Frontier is truly an understatement! ...             Young Avengers Volume 2: Family Matters TPB (Young Avengers)5 reviews Allan Heinberg, Andrea Divito, ... Marvel Comics, 2007 Surprising, Exciting and Fun - A Real Triumph! I just read Alan Heinberg's Young Avengers for, oh, I'd say the millionth time. I have to tell you it gets better and richer and with every reading. The great thing about YA is how brilliantly Heinberg confounds your expectations as to what this book is going to be. When you first hear about the characters he introduces, they don't sound too promising. Hulkling? Iron Lad? A young Vision? ...             Through the Garden Gate1 review Elizabeth Lawrence The University of North Carolina Press, 1995 Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Miss Lawrence says, "Dill is a hardy annual. The seeds can be sown in fall or early spring. The seedlings must be thinned, and Mrs. Clarkson says she saves every scrap that is pulled up. She uses them in potato salad, and sprinkles them over broiled lamb." Miss Lawrence has distilled much of her gardening and some of her cooking knowledge into this lovely little book (about 250 pages). Ideas ...             Good Old Grits Cookbook Bill Neal, David Perry Workman Publishing Company, 1991 Think risotto or polenta, but funkier. Think texture, and the wholesome goodness and flavor of stone-ground corn. And think Cheese Grits Souffle, Blueberry Grits Muffins, Grits Pizza, and the quintessential dish that's been published in The New York Times: Shrimp and Grits. Bill Neal and David Perry love grits, and in this Passionate cookbook they export grits out of the Southern kitchen-and attempt to demystify the food that's fed a region ...             Gardener's Latin: A Lexicon6 reviews Bill Neal Algonquin Books, 2003 Great for any Gardener! I teach gardening classes with titles such as "Seed Catalogs are Seductive" and "Saving Seeds" and have recommended this book to my students. It is fun, and informative. Let's face it, you can't get far with gardening for fun, hobby or business if you don't learn some latin. Gardener's Latin makes it easy and explains all those things you've been wondering about. This is a fresh and ...             Remembering Bill Neal: Favorite Recipes from a Life in Cooking1 review Moreton Neal, Bill Neal, ... The University of North Carolina Press, 2004 Don't overlook this title Bill Neal was and is the consensus visionary leader of the Southern cooking renaissance.

Buy this one and celebrate food and the best of the American family that carries on even when divorce splinters ...             The Johnson County War3 reviews Bill O'Neal Eakin Press, 2004 Highly recommended for American history shelves Bill O'Neal's The Johnson County War is a true, historical count of a violent and bloody conflict in Wyoming's northern rangeland. One side were cattle barons and powerful politicians; on the other, homesteaders and rustlers. The range war was rife with lynchings, ambushes, invasions by hired Texas gunmen, and ended in fierce last stand and siege drawing in hundreds of combatants. Black-and-white ...             Encyclopedia of Western Gunfighters6 reviews Bill O'Neal University of Oklahoma Press, 1991 Possibly the best book in my extensive Western library This book is fascinating because it separates truth from fiction. All documented gunfights of the old west are included here (as of the book's writing), & all gunfights that are undocumented are excluded. It's as simple as that. I don't buy the author's premise that if it was a real gunfight, it must have been documented at the time (wouldn't most killers have wanted to keep their killings a ...             The Sons of the Pioneers1 review Bill O'Neal, Fred Goodwin Eakin Press, 2001 About a National Treasure That Has Been Misplaced This is a solid report on a singing group that played a major role in the western craze of the 1930s and 1940s. Those who remember the Charles Starrett westerns of the 1930s or the Roy Rogers movies of the 1940s, or who purchased DVDs of them, will recall the smooth harmony of the SOPs, as they are known to their fans. Over the years, performers have stepped in to fill the holes left by their ...             Reel Cowboys: Western Movie Stars Who Thrilled Young Fans and Helped Them Grow Up Decent and Strong Bill O'Neal, Melissa Roberts Eakin Press, 2000             Gardener's Latin2 reviews Bill Neal Robert Hale Ltd, 1993 Gardener's Latin: Discovering the orgins, lore and meanings of botanical names Explains the orgin and meaning of the latin words (regards plants), in most cases describes the look /structure of the plant.

Marvel Comics, 2005 Brilliant, Once It Hit Its Stride In the seventies, superhero books were, if not dead, at least very sleepy. So Marvel tried everything but the kitchen sink. And not only were many of these works highly experimental, but they were often passed from creator to creator until something clicked (Master of Kung Fu and Iron Fist were two other features that took a while to find their feet). That Killraven survived is miraculous-- ...             The Arizona Rangers1 review Bill O'Neal Eakin Press, 1988 A great book about arizonas old west history The Arizona Rangers were a special force created to assist jurisdictional lawmen at the time when outlaws and criminals outnumbered lawmen in the Arizona Territory.
