Charming
This book was recommended by a friend who has it and reads it to her granddaughter. I bought it to give as a gift to my granddaughter, but was so thrilled at the charming and spectacular content, I have kept it for myself. The pop ups have such amazing color and are on heavy enough paper that it should last a long time. I have been a great fan of all the Oz books (which I Have, some printed in ...

Should be required reading for all RN's
This book should be required reading for all nurses in all nursing programs. It is an unspoken nursing student idea that when you graduate from your nursing program that you should, "know it all." This is unrealistic for the new/novice nurse. This book explains the process and gives comfort the the new nurse that expecting you to "know it all" is unreasonable and is not an expectation of the ...

An education and entertaining read
Although history and aviation buffs will definitely enjoy this book, there was so much more to it. This book really makes you think about the value of life. Many, many people died in this book, from training accidents, falling off boats in the ocean, getting hit by "friendly fire", as well as getting hit in combat. Yet nobody complained. Lives were expendable for the cause. And for some ...

Authentic and Poetic - A Remarkable Story
I no longer remember where I stumbled across Vessel of Sadness. I recall that I was totally unfamiliar with this book and its author. I was puzzled by the title. But my attention was captured by the literary reviews on the back cover. "How have you said so much and involved me so deeply with so few words?" Gunnar Myrdahl, Nobel laureate. "One of the most sensitive and moving books of the ...

Chillingly Clear Account of War on the Eastern Front
Awsome - the one word I use to describe this book. Debates exist whether this book is non-fiction or fiction mainly due to the inaccuracies regarding specific details, some minor such as uniform markings. However, after researching this topic I came across a letter to the Editor of "Military Review", printed in the March-April 1997 edition, by a Douglas E. Nash. Nash eventually located Sajer ...

A Very Interesting Overview of the Apollo Program
I bought this book after seeing ``From the Earth to the Moon,'' and found it to be a very interesting and informative overview of the American manned space program through Apollo. I would highly recommend it to anyone who may have been too young or not born yet to understand the accomplishments of the astronauts and all the men and women of NASA and contractors who were the real heart behind the ...

A materfully written and truly inspirational book!
A friend of mine introduced me to this book in April of this year. He told me it was unlike any book about the Pacific war that he had ever read. Although skeptical at first, I sill went ahead and purchased the book. I left it on my book-shelve for several months and forgot all about it. As I began packing up in July to move I noticed this book again, so I picked it up and began reading ...

A "Must Have" for Naval History Buffs and Medal Enthusiasts
I have really enjoyed, and highly recommend, this book. Many medal books focus on personal decorations, but this work, as the subtitle indicates, traces the development of United States Navy and Marine Corps campaign medals from their origin around 1900 through 1996. For each medal there is narrative describing it's creation, usually including a synopsis of the key events of the conflict, ...

The Greatest QB Of The 90's!!!!!!
A magazine that finally gave justice to the greatness of Troy Aikman. All of those Cowboy fans who showed their support during his induction to the Football Hall Of Fame proved he was most deserving. The man had a great arm and such great focus during his playing days. Every football fan should own this tribute mag!!!!

The most definitive Royal Commemorative book I've seen.
This is the most complete Royal Commemorative book I have yet to come across. It shows color and black and white photos of Royal Commemorative collectables past and present. With descriptive information and value. I am a avid collector and I consider this book to be my Bible. A must have for anyone who collects or is simply interested in the British Monarchy.

Everything you wanted to know about the movie
This commemorative book, published in 1992, certainly does its job of commemorating the movie Casablanca. It's a slender book with tons of photos of the actors, sets, and posters from the movie, and packed with everything you seemingly would want to know about it. You find out about what led to Casablanca's production, its inspiration, how the actors were chosen, the history occurring at the ...

Guy McKenzie Professor of English, Florida State University, wrote the following about the winning poem, "Because We are Men," as well as commenting on other poems featured in this anthology: "If you're a poet, it's easy to love poetry, which makes it difficult in the extreme to judge a contest like this one that has so ...

The Subway Series
I actually don't like either the Yankees or Mets, but this book caught my eye with great pictures and an overall analysis of the Yanks and Mets 2000 season and playoffs. All the exciting moments are in this book and I can't get over the great pictures this book has to offer. This is a great book for any baseball fan!
