ACU Press
, 2000
Without question, the essays in this volume are landmarks in the historiography and self-understanding of the Stone Campbell Movement, especially Churches of Christ. Written by two insiders and one outsider, each reflects significant developments in Stone-Campbell studies in the last forty years...Read, learn, and enjoy! -From the Introduction, By Douglas Foster

THE book
Get this book. Not only does it contain all the recepies you could ask for, it is actually possible to ask the more artistically oriented suppliers of chemicals for a liter of, say, nr. 314 and they'll mix it for you.

Riding The Torrent
Richard Hughes's 1929 odyssey, A High Wind In Jamaica -- which has been included in the Modern Library's List of "The 100 best English-language novels of the century"--forces the reader to revisit that moment when children lose their innocence to the world; that diaphanous transference from childhood to adulthood that can be so heartbreakingly revelatory. In this tale, it rides in on a torrent of ...

A brave new old world
I have only recently starting flyfishing and am in process of learning with dries. Picked up this book in an effort to understand one more aspect of this wonderful sport. Dave Hughes has done an outstanding job whetting my appetite for fishing with soft-hackles, winged and wingless wets (flymphs, I love that word!) and fuzzy nymphs. The respect he has for those who opened his eyes to this area of ...

Buddhism in America

Engaging and informative
This "road map to the American Buddhist landscape" succeeds in being both "engaging and informative," as the author intended. While it could be used as a text for a college class, it will also be of interest to American practitioners of Buddhism (like me) who want to know more about our roots and about the variety of forms of Buddhism in America. Part One provides background material on the ...

Excellent book
This was a requirement for my MBA studies. I found the book very informative, well structured, very clear and to the point, with sufficient examples provided to explain the concepts. Leadership is a very broad and deep subject and the authors have managed to make the subject more interesting and engaging. I gained a lot of insight in my own leadership style and was able to identify points that ...

Another good book to be added to your Strategic Thinkers' Bokshelf!
Most of the publications that come out of CCL (or Center for Creative Leadership), which I have acquired for my personal library, are seemingly well-supported by research findings & concisely written by the respective authors, who apparently hold impeccable track records in their fields. This particular book is one of them. (CCL has earned its #1 Rank in Leadership Education by Business Week). ...

Experience a terrible sea storm without getting wet!
For years, I have been a big fan of Richard Hughes' book A High Wind in Jamaica. When I had a chance to read the newly republished In Hazard (1938) through Librarything's Early Reviewers program, I was thrilled. Unfortunately, I am not able to report on the new introduction by John Crowley, (author of Little, Big) since that was not included in the advance uncorrected proof. Hughes has framed ...

Hughes
I read 'The Fox in the Attic' many years ago when I was seventeen. It was a revelation to me of how literature can deal with history and politics on a deeper and more profound level than simple narration of events can do. As a journalist Hughes had travelled widely in pre-war Europe and the novel reeks with his knowledge of real people and places. In one sense perhaps this is a roman-a-clef but ...
Tactics for Trout (David Hughes Fishing Library)

Dave Hughes
Stackpole Books

Clear & practical advice, read it before your next trip.
One of the best fly-fishing books I've read. Goes beyond the usual casting mechanics and knots directly to solving the puzzles we face when on the water: how do I catch fish today? Covers tactics in general, plus specific techniques for fishing dries, nymphs, wets, and streamers. Well-written; author has clear, simple, very readable style. His only semi-flaw: he has a slight bias toward the ...
