Surprise! A clinical description
I am in the middle of lstening to this book. Its detailed descriptions of ranch life and horses are quite compelling. But what surprised me was the absolutely accurate description of a boy with ADD. This book was written some two decades before attention deficit disorder gained anyone's attention, but O'Hara's descriptions of Ken's behavior are absolutely consistent. And then O'Hara answers ...

ElvisNews Review
Probably because the book is this massive it is printed on very thin paper. Especially because this guide will function as a reference book often, this is a pity. We bet there will be only a few in perfect condition after a couple of weeks. Also a lot of the pictures used in the book deserve more than the exposure they get now, also due to the poor paper-quality. On the other hand: this work on ...

Terrific!
This is an excellent book that chronicles the making of the legendary screen classic "Gone With the Wind". The book moves in chronological order from it's start as a novel all the way through the pre-production, production and post-production stages of what was to be one of the greatest films of all time, if not the greatest. The book is filled with numerous photos, some of them in color, many of ...
Ghostwriter (Jake O'Hara Mystery)

Humor without slapstick
Ghostwriter was a fun book to read. The humor wasn't insulting and obvious. The author avoided stating the obvious, particularly when it came to the ethnicities of her characters. The final sentence was great. I particularly enjoyed the insight into the world of ghostwriting.

A great book - an easy read
Kevin's writing draws you into his journey - a remarkable romp around Ireland with a donkey that seems human. I loved it. You could nearly smell the air and see the characters. A magical look at an island that has changed so much in the 25 years since his journey took place. I wanted to be there by his side as he runs into character after character. His book is the next best thing to being ...

A political scenario to plausible to ignore!
Two credible stories woven into one complex and gripping novel. If you love to hate the current administration in Washington DC, you'll be captivated by the explanation that Morgan has laid out for the President's behavior. In the other Washington, a prudent family gets swept into the chaos of a Y2K stricken nation. Most exciting drama I've read in years!

A New Insight Every Page
I could not put this book down. Rabbi Fohrman has taken each sentence in the original text and brought amazing insight, word by word, in a very folksy, chatty style, as if he were talking directly to the reader, one on one. You will never again look at the story of Adam and Eve and Cain and Abel as just a simple story. I eagerly await Rabbi Fohrman's next book.

A streamlined system of working
As a business owner in a highly technical field, my time is very valuable. I have read and implemented many organization/time management ideas over the years and, although they all have something positive, none have had the impact on my day to day productivity of "Find it in 5 Seconds". The premise of this book is that office workers are drowning in so much information that they cannot ...

The Philosophy of Design
DESIGNING DESIGN is quite possibly the most beautiful book on design ever published. Not only is the content illuminating and intelligent, allowing the world to gain an appreciation for one of the truly unique voices in the design field - that voice being the Japanese master Kenya Hara - but also in keeping with the subject, the book itself is a paramount of elegance, simplicity and superb ...

Pleasing to the Eye, and to the Heart.....
Beautifully written and illustrated! Both my second grader and I are in love with the story line and artwork! My child is thrilled to own this book, she actually begged for an additional copy to take to school and give to her teacher. I think the kids in her class have nearly worn out the copy as it is now among one of their favorites. We are looking forward to seeing more charming tales by ...

Remedial Hebrew for the language impaired
I am rubbish with learning new languages, but this series of books has been very helpful. My current goal is simply to be able to read Hebrew, and these books help me to do that on my own. I suppose if you want to learn to speak it properly as well, you might want to look for another book as this one does not come with any kind of recording.

One of the best books I own
Little can be added to the reviews below, expect to add that this book really shows how Hara was a leader of men. In spite of IJN policy and militaristic propaganda he trains his crew to a superlative level. He is also brutally honest about himself and his mistakes and foibles. Add to this some invaluable historical eyewitness data and you have a great book. Hara, by rewriting IJN torpedo ...

Best of Show Second Time Around...
This is the new Swan, the 2007 Edition with feathers all bright white, fluffed and ready to lull and captivate you at the same time. Andy O'Hara has improved on the un-improvable this time around. The weave is tight, but so smoothly done the stories blend into each other, carrying two common themes to fruition by the turn of the last page. The fun is how Andy has taken the reader on a swing ...

The Skinny on Schmoozing
Most books about networking, dating, and making friends start at the point of contact: They assume that the user knows where to go to make friends. Thomas starts with the basics, from roaming your neighborhood to meet folks to the handy rule of thumb that it takes 7 visits to a new group for others to feel that you're one of the crowd. I teach interpersonal communication, and this book has the ...

Charles Mathes
Worldwide Library
, 2000
An excellent novel that had good pace and hard to put down.
I've read all 3 of Mr. Mathes' novels. Each one was as least as good as the last. This one, The Girl At The end of the Line may even have been even better than the first two. This book started off quickly and never slowed down. The main characters (two young women) are thoroughly credible and very original. Their quest to uncover the mysteries of their family is like a high speed chase. ...
