"Following the success of her South African novel, 'Tarnished Idols', Marie Warder has gone to the other end of Africa for the setting of her new one, 'Samaritan of the Sahara'.

The racial slurs came so fast and furious the Hutus almost became inured to the ...             Finding Oprah's Roots: Finding Your Own6 reviews Jr. Henry Louis Gates Books on Tape, 2007 Genealogy, history, and DNA: A Fascinating Look This book is part genealogical guide, part celebrity biography, and part African-American history.

It's fantastic! I've never been a big fan of parenting books, but this one allows the parents to figure out themselves exactly what they want to say. No one person could give you personalized advice on how to pass along your values to your child, but these authors helped me clarify my own views in order to pass them along. My ...             The Garden of Martyrs16 reviews Michael C. White St. Martin's Press, 2004 Fiction based on reality Michael C. White has based his novel on a factual incident, which I had never heard of before: a murder in Northampton, Massachusetts in 1805.

Ross, FFR+             The Pomelo Tree5 reviews Dominic J. Cibrario Britton Road Press, 2004 Highly recommended!!! Totally enjoyable, and worth losing sleep over to continue reading. Every emotion known is felt while reading this book, from wonder at the sights, sounds and smells of the country, to the emotions toward the children and all the characters, who are so well-developed you feel you know them personally.

This is one of their best and most useful (and usable) volumes yet. The field of aesthetics is as old as philosophy itself, but somehow this companion represents major topics and philosophers from ...             Bumping into God: 35 Stories of Finding Grace in Unexpected Places4 reviews Dominic Grassi Loyola Press, 2001 encouraging heartwarming and entertaining true stories After reading this book I looked up Fr. Grassi's church and attended Mass there. He wasn't the priest at that service, so I didn't hear one of his famous sermons, but I could tell this author's love of life and people has infected his parish. The story that sticks in my mind was when newleweds invited him for dinner, and the bride's discussion of having thawed and refrozen the lasagna made him ...             The Healthy Table Cookbook4 reviews Janet E. Taylor The Healthy Table LLC, 1999 Fantastic southwestern health food.

This cookbook gives me the best of both worlds. Additionally, I agree with the other review on the research information at the beginning of the book...wonderful. I've never seen such an abundance of information ...             Brainwash: The Secret History of Mind Control4 reviews Dominic Streatfeild Thomas Dunne Books, 2007 Engaging read about a disturbing subject I enjoyed the author's writing style, in-depth coverage, and exclusive interviews. The interviews are invaluable because they occur decades after some of the events and the people involved are more forthcoming. Everything related to mind control is here: the CIA and drugs, subliminal messages, cults, the Judas Priest trial, and so much more that you haven't heard about before. The book is ...             Breaking Bread With Father Dominic5 reviews Dominic Garramone KETC Channel 9, 1999 Breaking Bread with Father Dominic This is a great cookbook for both beginners and experienced bread bakers.
