I refer to Ms. Pollack's brillant book, Seventy-eight Degrees of Wisdom, time and time again. It gives wonderful sight to the seeker, and speaks of the timeless connections to God & Universe through the study of the tarot. There is an eloquence in her writing that make for several AHA! moments, just great!!!             Great Fashion Designs of the Seventies Paper Dolls2 reviews Tom Tierney Dover Publications, 1996 Designs of the Seventies Tom Tierney has recreated the designer fashions of the seventies in the paper doll book. If you love haute couture, you'll love this book (it doesn't feature the street or pop star fashion of the era). The dolls resemble two of the most famous models of the decade, Beverly Johnson and Cheryl Tiegs (although this isn't mentioned in the notes), giving the book more authenticity. The seventies ...             I'm Too Young To Be Seventy: And Other Delusions9 reviews Judith Viorst Free Press, 2005 Yes Witty, But Far Far More I bought this book for an older friend turning 70, and -- laughing out loud -- read it before wrapping. It's not only witty (and thoughtful) for those turning 70, but for those of us who will someday reach 70, and have friends of 70. Sometimes I feel I have grown up with Judith Viorst. She is enough older that her age milestone books are out and available before I turn 30, 40 50, and on. I ...             The Seventy Great Mysteries of the Ancient World: Unlocking the Secrets of Past Civilizations9 reviews Thames & Hudson, 2001 Fascinating Read I have always enjoyed books about mysterious events of the past, unknown civilizations, strange happenings, etc. This book is full of such items.

Adler Books, 2005 if you love surfing...& even if you do not... this is an amazing book- some of the best surf pictures (in my opinion) during one of the most visually inspiring era's of surfing. the pages are arranged in such a way so as to not distract you from their content, the printing is awesome and there's not a single shot not worthy of a poster size above your bed. this book will not harsh your mellow- it will make you want to move to lucadia, ride ...             The Seventy Wonders of China1 review Thames & Hudson, 2007 An excellent review certain to appeal to both general-interest browsers and students Any collection strong in China surveys, from college-level holdings to general-interest public libraries, will want to include THE SEVENTY WONDERS OF CHINA in their collection.

Bryant & May, the main characters, are old-school English detectives in charge of the Peculiar Crimes Unit - in other words, crimes that are odd or unusual. I enjoyed the book and enjoyed following them as they trailed their criminal and tried to figure out ...             ShrinkLits: Seventy of the World's Towering Classics Cut Down to Size8 reviews Maurice Sagoff Workman Publishing Company, 1980 Every Reader Should Own This I can only add to what others have written. Each of these "ShrinkLits" (Shrunken Literature) is unbelievably clever, but without being formulaic. Another reviewer mentioned Beowulf. Sure, I liked the couple Danish but I laughed out loud at, "Later on as King of Geats, He performed prodigious feats. Till he met a foe too tough (Non-Beodegradable stuff)." Or how about The Count of Monte ...             Seventy Times Seven: The Power of Forgiveness6 reviews Johann Christoph Arnold Plough Publishing House, 1997 A guaranteed Best Seller.

It is everything that I expected and more. Very pleased with the presentation and contents.             Seventy Times Seven13 reviews Salvatore Sapienza Haworth Press, 2006 A Thoroughly Satisfying Read Seventy Times Seven was a tough read for me. As a somewhat bitterly ex-catholic gay boy who has been battling HIV for eleven years, I found that many parts of Sal Sapienza's novel hit very close to home. After I reached the end, though, I recognized that the journey had been well worth it, despite the emotional bumps I hit along the way. The story's main character is Vito, a cute gay Italian ...             Nineteen Seventy Seven (Red Riding Quartet)1 review David Peace Serpent's Tail, 2007 Experimental crime fiction with a social conscience David Peace's first novel, Nineteen seventy four was a story with roots in working class English literature.

The novel was set in Yorkshire, written in the first person, and explored the underside of an area that months later saw the start of a vicious series of sexual murders ...             Doing Sixty and Seventy1 review Gloria Steinem Elders Academy Press, 2006 Provocative essays I was excited to see that Gloria Steinem has written a new book about aging, and eagerly ordered it. When I saw the book -- just 68 pages long and printed in a font about three times normal size, I felt cheated. It's not a "book" -- it's a series of two essays published in hard cover. Once I got past that realization and read the essays, I was glad that I had. Steinem is now seventy-plus, and ...             Seventy Times Seven (Colton Parker Mystery Series, Book 2)13 reviews Brandt Dodson Harvest House Publishers, 2006 a solid Christian mystery read This was a excellent book, this is the first book I have read by this author.
