Bully!! for Jennifer Armstrong
My name is John Olsen. I am a very big Theodore Roosevelt fan. I collect T.R. items and have study many of his writings. Jennifer Armstrong has written this book so convincingly well that I almost thought T.R. had actually written these letters. As explained in the beginning of the book, one of her major resources for the book was Roosevelt's own "Letters to His Children." So, while T.R. ...

"I culd a gaht a job!"
From the distant cousin who, based upon Abe's knowing him so well, "wulda thot I culd a gaht a job!" to the ministers who sought to pray to the political leaders who sought to have their advice taken to heart, this is a wonderful view of Civil War America. The letters are of course the focal point of the book. But it is what they say in their totality rather than individually that impresses. ...

The National Archives Opens Its Treasure Trove
Dear Prospective Book Buyer, Anyone who's ever visited the National Archives temple in D.C. has probably wondered what unknown treasures are hidden away in its recesses. In that respect, this book -- a collection of letters written to a variety of presidents (and their wives) -- is a genuine gem.

They've missed it...
I've been pretty disappointed with most of the negative reviews of this book posted here so far. First, there's the contention that the book isn't funny at all. How is a story about an ear growing out of a man's chest not funny? I think people are expecting this to be some kind of historical account of Gulf War 1. I mean, looking at the "customers who bought this item also bought" section, it ...
My Dear Mr. Stalin: The Complete Correspondence of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Joseph V. Stalin

In Black and White--the Betrayal of Poland
The review you posted by Publishers Weekly literally made me want to gag. This book is not a "history junkie's delight"; it is the essence of Poland's 50 year nightmare from 1939 to 1989. As a retried U.S. military officer and Polish-American baby-boomer whose father fought at places like Iwo Jima during WWII, I have great interest in the betrayal of Poland during WWII. Anyone who knows about ...
Dear Mr. President: Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Letters from a Mill Town Girl
Elizabeth Winthrop
Winslow Press
, 2001
In his first inaugural address, Franklin Delano Roosevelt tells the American people that the only thing they have to fear is fear itself. Emma Bortoletti, the 12-year-old daughter of Italian immigrants, already knows a lot about fear. The Great Depression has hit her western Massachusetts mill town very hard, and the president's bold new programs might be making things even worse. FDR addresses her worries and reveals many of his own in an ...

Lisa Black
Talmidim Publishing

This book is an actual letter written to the President of the United States. It was written in the hopes that it would somehow make a difference in our current President?s decision to divide Israel, the covenant land given by Yahweh (God) to the Jewish people. It is Lisa Black's prayer for the President to take this "letter" seriously, and hear her plea for Israel and the United States. This letter is a cry from Lisa's heart, and many others ...
