A Polish Love Story in the Time of King Stanislaw
This excellent novel, which gets its name from the Polish proverb "Push not the river; it will flow of its own accord", is the story of two cousins, both countesses, who are in love with the same untitled man in a period of eightieth century history, a time when Russia, Prussia and Austria were bent on conquering and dividing Poland. The characters are well developed, the dialogue is free ...

Mark's books are easy to read and offer the thoughts and insights of a true horseman. His methods are gentle and honor the horse. Delightful.

Great Action for Attraction Manual
I thoroughly enjoyed Sharon Warren's approach to manifesting through the Law of Attraction. Her stories and humor added massive weight to the demonstration of how we do bring both positive and negatives into our life, most often without conscious effort. I have put several of the suggestions in the book into action, and have been reaping the rewards. I love this book! I sat around waiting ...

Incredible journey
I read this book from cover to cover and was completely enraptured by the images and descriptions of the various species. What incredible beauty lies in our ocean depths! I became fascinated with this stuff after watching one of the Blue Planet episodes. I also bought a copy and sent it to my brother. What an awesome book!

Finally, the Liturgy Understood
I had an immediate paradigm-shift when I read about the relationship between Revelation and the celebration of the Liturgy - The incense, the garbs, the altar, and more importantly the words we sometimes echo without feeling or thinking of the real meaning of it all... "Holy, Holy, Holy,", and the "LAMB of GOD" now echos in my heart during mass. The Liturgy for me is now Heaven on Earth for I ...

A Childhood Memory
I read this book 60 years ago as a young boy of 10. It made a tremendous impression on me with regards to the geography of the Great Lakes of the US and Canada. I was thrilled to find that it is still being printed and the pictures are the same as I remember--excellent. A wonderful story.

Best of the Radix Tetralogy
In my opinion, this is (along with the first book in the Tetralogy, Radix) one of the finest sci-fi/fantasy novels written in the past 30 years. It's a rollicking good time, with good vs evil, heroes and villains, interesting scientific concepts, a romance that even manly men could appreciate, and a tempo that speeds up and slows down at just the right times. Heavily influenced by Lovecraft, ...

A Mesmerizing Story and a Timely Tale
That FLIGHT OF THE GOOSE is a first novel by Lesley Thomas is the first hurdle the reader must overcome, so rich in detail, research, and technical finesse are the over four hundred pages of this fascinating book. What does become obvious with even the first few pages is the fact that here is a writer who can address significant world environment issues while building love stories - between a ...

Feeling the Pain
Rose, Chris. "One Dead in the Attic", CR Books, 2006. Feeling the Pain Amos Lassen I am very surprised that more books were not published about Hurricane Katrina given the literary heritage of New Orleans. There have been a few but there have not been many personal accounts. Chris Rose, a newspaper correspondent in New Orleans, put some of his newspaper columns together and gives a ...

The Lord of the Rings Sketch Book
The content of this book lent a great deal of inside information that Jackson used to form the characters of all LORD OF THE RINGS movies. I have collected all of the LOTR articles that I could find. This book made an excellant addition to my collection.

The best book on beadweaving on the market!
I have a bunch of beadweaving books, but THIS is the one I refer to when I forget a stitch or need some technical help with increasing or decreasing. Nice projects and instructions are written clearly. If you buy only one book on beadweaving, it should be this one!

A wellspring of insipiration for the nature photographer (and nature lover)
As an avid photographer - and one who has spent a lot of time shooting in EA - these are precisely the sort of images that make me want to grab my camera and rush back into the Serengeti. It's a well selected collection - perhaps not the greatest photographs I have ever seen, but a beautiful selection nontheless. A wonderful departure from the stock "post-card" photograpy that's been pouring out ...
Personal Power Through Awareness: A Guidebook for Sensitive People (Book II of the Earth Life Series)
35 reviews
Sanaya Roman
HJ Kramer
, 1986
excellent book
This is another excellent book but all of Romans books tend to repeat themselves. Still I have 4 or 5 of her books and underline and go back and re-read things during my devotional times. No major changes in my life have been necessarily produced through her books but they are comforting words that would be absolutely wonderful if they really did work.
