I found "The Little Saigon Cookbook" to be amongst the best of any of my Vietnamese/Asian cookbooks. It is vivid in its descriptions and illustrations. It also provides any serious enthusiast with some excellent recipes. My last dental assistant was Vietnamese and taught me a great deal before I had to retire and this cookbook reflects much of what she took the time to teach me. I also found ...             A Man Like Mac (Harlequin Superromance No. 911)12 reviews Fay Robinson Harlequin, 2000 Book Reviewer for Myshelf.Com Fay Robinson's debut novel A MAN LIKE MAC is a true example of an author who knows how to involve her readers.

My only regret is that I did not have it at age 20 instead of age 60. Kudos to Mary Jo Fay for speaking about activities of sex openly and honestly just as one would to prepare a gourmet meal or any other of the fine things we enjoy in life. Mary Jo Fay did a great job of disspelling the myth that "sex is for the man and not for the woman". The ...             The Temple Bombing10 reviews Melissa Fay Greene Da Capo Press, 2006 Another wonderful microcosm of the Civil Rights from MFG With "The Temple Bombing," Melissa Fay Greene surpasses the accomplishment of "Praying for Sheetrock." Much like that book, "The Temple Bombing" is a microcosm of the Civil Rights Movement. It is the story of the 1958 bombing of the Temple in Atlanta, a synagogue for Reform Jews. Rabbi Rothschild led the Temple during turbulent years in the South, and was an outspoken advocate for the equal ...             Last Place on Earth (National Geographic)13 reviews Mike Fay National Geographic, 2005 Stunning pictures Mike Fay has done it again with this collection of amazing photos.

Reading Get Out Of Your Boxx And Live The Life You Really Want is a liberating experience that will remove you from all the traps that have held you (and the author, Mary Jo Fay) back -- perhaps for a lifetime. For me, this book was a Godsend. Certainly, information like this is out there in other books, magazines, online newsletters, etc. However, I believe that most readers will identify ...             Faces of Layla, A Journey Through Ethiopian Adoption6 reviews Melissa Fay; Armstrong, Jennifer Greene Emma Dodge Hanson; Melissa Faye Greene, 2007 Get out the tissues I would recommend this book to anyone, but in particular it is a must-have for those who are even remotely connected to Ethiopian adoption. We are currently waiting to bring home our two children (who are currently at Layla), and what I love about this book is that it makes our adoption seem very real to our friends and family members who previously showed little interest in, or understanding ...             The Pearls of Love and Logic for Parents and Teachers7 reviews Jim Fay, Foster W. Cline Love & Logic Press, 2000 Great Parenting Resource I just LOVE this book. I really can't say enough about it. It is very quick reading, and each "lesson/story" is only a page or 2 long - so it's really easy to find the time to read. This is a must have for any parent or teacher who wants effective discipline strategies that really work!             As I Lay Frying: A Rehoboth Beach Memoir6 reviews Fay I. Jacobs A&M Books, 2004 A Love Letter to Rehoboth In the interest of full disclosure, Fay Jacobs is a dear friend of mine. I knew she was funny before I ever read her book, because she's been making me laugh for the last eleven years by just talking. However, talking funny and writing funny are two different things -- and I'm happy to report that Fay does both extremely well. Fay is a unique and fascinating, "strange and extraordinary person" ...             My Samoan Chief6 reviews Fay G. Calkins University of Hawaii Press, 1971 Fantastic book This book was a truly great read for those looking to understand more about Samoan society. Not much has really changed in 50 years . It will give insight into the differences between western thougts and ideals and faaSamoa, the Samoan way. It is also humorous and very entertaining.             Christmas on Snowbird Mountain (Harlequin Superromance No. 1094)6 reviews Fay Robinson Harlequin, 2002 The final chapter of a fulfilled dream Fay Robinson, my mother, passed away on Dec. 2, 2002. Christmas on Snowbird Mountain was her fifth book published. My mother, in one form or another, has been an amazing writer her whole life.

Donning Company Publishers, 1999 Invaluable portrait of a wonderful performer and his world. Only Max Morath and his wife, photographer Diane Skomars, could have created this book. It's a beautifully designed time capsule, a portrait of a showman who, though he plays music from the turn of the century, is very much a man of the present. The iconography of the freeway -- lurid hotel, restaurant, and gas station signs -- is part of this story, as well as Max's pithy words on ...             A Multitude of Mercies6 reviews Fay Freimuth iUniverse, Inc., 2005 Highly recommend Sensitive novelization of a real-life experience. A must-read for anyone affected by mental illness, or with a loved-one who suffers from mental illness.
