Latin for the Illiterati, Second Edition: A Modern Guide to an Ancient Language1 review
Jon R. Stone

Routledge, 2009

Fantastic Reading for the Latin Student
I just happened to run across this book the other day, and have not put it down. It has relly given me a great way to look up phrases and termonology that I had been searching for. Please do not use the online translators, they are pure garbage and will not gine you the correct grammar or translation for the phrase you are looking for. This book does not have them all, but it does have many, many ...
  
  











  



  
Hide and Seek: with Lovable, Furry Old Grover (Pictureback(R))6 reviews
Jon Stone

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1976

They don't get any better than this
This is one of the best picture books, ever. Grover would like to play hide and seek with the listener, but he has very limited hiding options, as he is caught within the confines of the pages of the book you are holding. He tries everything from coloring the pages blue to making a lot of speech balloons to hide behind, but his presence is always obvious. He gets increasingly deperate to find a ...
  
  











  



  
The Monster At The End Of This Book (A Little Golden Book)5 reviews
Jon Stone

Western Publishing Company, 1971

Great, classic book
I was delighted to see this book still in print. Totally forgot about it until I saw it at a store recently.. I LOVED it as a kid, and any kid will continue to do so (especially with a well-animated reader) Grover's begs and pleads for you not to continue will ensure that it gets read to the end.

Please Do Not Open this Book! (Bright & Early Playtime Books)15 reviews
Jon Stone

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2006

Best kids book of all time!
This is my absolute favorite kids book. I learned to read from this book as a small child. Basically, I made everyone read this book to me so many times that I essentially memorized what every word was/looked like. When I had kids of mine own, I found a copy at Goodwill and I was so excited! I figured that they weren't publishing it anymore, so I was very happy. I read it to my oldest many times. ...
  
  











  



  
Latin for the Illiterati: Exorcizing the Ghosts of a Dead Language6 reviews
Jon R. Stone

Routledge, 1996

The Title Says It All
This is a book which might well bore the serious student of Latin for whom it was not written. It serves well those who have never studied Latin: here you can find those maddening phrases which appear in literature, tombstone epitaphs, legal documents, medical records, etc. Anyone who reads will find this book a ~sine qua non~.
  
  











  



  
Lovable, Furry Old Grover's Resting Places (Pictureback(R))2 reviews
Jon Stone

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1984

A Winner!
My daughter loves this book! Grover shows your child 'resting places' for different body parts (thumb, hands, nose, etc) and invites you child to try them. Our daughter learned her body parts this way, but still wants to read the Grover book. Fun and educational, this was one of the best gifts my daughter received on her first Birthday. It is hard to find books that she really likes, this one ...

MY grown children loved this book when they were little. I bought it for my grandaughter and we shared lots of laughs when I read it to her. It is a very charming story.
  
  











  



  
Latin for the Illiterati Knowledge Cards Deck
Jon R. Stone, Pomegranate

Pomegranate, 2003

Latin comes alive in this medley of more than three hundred Latin words, phrases, proverbs, and precepts. Impress your friends with a catchy Latin toast, enrich your understanding of English by learning Latin roots, or simply be amused by the humor and veracity of centuries-old sayings, such as noli irritare leones (do not provoke the lions) or cito maturum, cito putridum (soon ripe, soon rotten). Based on the popular reference Latin for the ...
  
  











  



  
The Essential Max Müller: On Language, Mythology, and Religion1 review

Palgrave Macmillan, 2002

An important scholar too oftened overlooked
All human knowledge, however antiquated, possesses some value for the present. True, such knowledge may not yield pure gold, but there might still be a few nuggets one can mine, specks of gold ore that can be used to enrich one's knowledge of human history and of human ideas. It is perhaps ironic that what Max Muller had observed in his "Lecture on the Vedas" became true of his own scholarship. ...
  
  











  



  
On the Boundaries of American Evangelicalism: The Postwar Evangelical Coalition1 review
Jon R. Stone

Palgrave Macmillan, 1997

A very detailed and through investigation
This gives a good historical analysis of the fundamentalist/modernist split within the Protestant Church. It is a bit heavy and hard to read, though. Rather than glossing over the history (like many other authors), this author really goes deep into the issue by evaluating the primary documents of the time. You really get an understanding of the nitty-gritty details that lead to the modern ...
  
  











  



  
The Craft of Religious Studies

Palgrave Macmillan, 2000

Unlike other humanistic disciplines, the academic study of religion must contend with a phenomenon that touches every dimension of human experience. For scholars so engaged, the study of religion often becomes a cross-cultural as well as a necessarily interdisciplinary endeavor. In this collection of original essays, Jon R. Stone has brought together the intellectual autobiographies of fourteen senior scholars--all with national or international ...
  
  











  



  
The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll26 reviews
Rolling Stone Magazine

Rolling Stone Press, 1983

Great Read, Great Reference Guide
For the money, this book really covers a lot of ground. I am a working DJ, and I use the information I found in this book every time I am behind a mic. No matter if it's to mention what city the band was formed in, to who the lead singer is this week, er month. It's handy, useful and very well written. Even if you are just a fan of Rock & Roll, you should own this book, you could almost consider ...

The Uninvited1 review
Del Stone Jr., Jon Foster

Rolling Thunder Press, 2004

The Book That Should Be A Movie
Compelling cinematic visuals meet solid plots and unforgettable characters in this sci-fi action adventure novel by creator Dave Dorman and author Del Stone Jr. Set in a strangely unsettling, post-apocalyptic world, a few quiet heroes battle bioterrorism, political corruption, environmental decay and horrific creatures. It's a fun and chilling read from cover to cover!
