In Broad Daylight: A Murder in Skidmore, Missouri
28 reviews
Harry N. MacLean
St. Martin's True Crime
, 2006
a true, gripping story
This book is an excellent account of the events that led up to the McElroy shooting, and, it also shows a true flavor of how small towns operate, and how people behave. This combination of factors make this book a must read. This newer version also has an epilogue from 2006, so the town of Skidmore, MO is revisited.

Hambley and cthonic terrors unnameable
It took me reading an anthology that Barbara edited to realize that yes Lovecraftian horrors from beyond the stars and undescribable, unthinkable by human brains were alive and well and living beneath the frozen lands of Darwath. When I need to count sheep or go to my happy place it's to the Vale of Dare that I go. Second in the series. If you bought one you'll need to get them all (Including ...

Jimmy Carter

, 2001
wonderful memoir of a country boy who became President
After reading this book it is easy to understand why Jimmy Carter was denigrated as a weak Leader who let America's enemies walk all over him. As he looks back with affection & describes his childhood in a strict, hardworking, but loving family on a farm in back country Depression-Era Georgia, Mr Carter comes across as a genuinely kind and good man who respects his fellow-men & women - ...

Hall Starts with a Bang
I have always tried to read and authors books in order but unfortunately I failed miserably when it came to Hall's Thorn books. Most series where you read the books out of order its a minor miss step but here it was a huge mistake. While Hall's books, for the most part, can stand on its own you don't truly understand the Thorn character until you've read Daylight. Under Cover of Daylight is ...

A Call To Action!
I loved this book. I would read it in the mornings while eating breakfast and it was a great start to the day. Erwin McManus is very passionate about his faith and he is very effective in trying to convey that passion. So many of his personal stories that he tells made just say "Wow." And then I realized how so many small things we do, the little leaps of faith that we take, can have such ...

Rumi Daylight: A Daybook of Spiritual Guidance

Camille Adams Helminski
Shambhala
, 1999
Rumi was a first-rate lover of God!
This book very quickly introduced me to Rumi whom I now consider one of the great spiritual teachers in my life. He loved God so deeply and his words exude this love in a way which is infectious. Helminski has done a great job of breaking out small fragments from the larger body of Rumi's work and has presented them in a format for easy assimilation. Each bite-sized piece though, is extremely ...

Daylight Design of Buildings

Koen Steemers
Earthscan Publications Ltd.
, 2002
Typically one third of the energy used in non-domestic buildings is for artificial lighting. Good daylight design in buildings offers huge potential savings -- as high as 70% -- for both new and refurbished buildings. There is also growing evidence that daylit buildings have fewer problems relating to health and well-being of the occupants. Daylight design should be a high priority in new building design and refurbishment. "Daylight Design of ...
Seize the Daylight: The Curious and Contentious Story of Daylight Saving Time

A Detailed Review of an Interesting Subject
I never realized that Daylight Saving Time (DST) had such a controversial and turbulent history. I believe that the author has done an excellent job in detailing DST's evolution, often in excruciating detail, right up to the current, yet still fluctuating, situation. The writing is clear and engaging making the book very easy to read. The book also contains many caricatures that were published ...

Wilfrid Sheed
Akadine Press
, 2000
A Gamer If Not a Master Player--Unique and Important
A memoir in which Sheed, an avid sports fan, takes on three worthy opponents--polio, addiction, and cancer--and not only stays in the ring with each but emerges triumphant. But the book's uniqueness and value is not easily summed up. Sheed's accomplishment is to take the reader into a place where all of the counselors, physicans and self-help gurus rarely arrive, and he does so without a trace ...
