Truth is better than Fiction...at least in this book it is.
While enjoying a full day sailing aboard Breath as paying customers some years ago, the author/captain/owner/builder of the vessel, his wife Dorothy, and their neighbors, who had come along to enjoy a sail and act as crew, talked about a book that Peter would some day publish. After returning to the relative safety of Northern Virginia, I visited their website from time to time in order to ...

Painless short intro to Spanish lit
This is a review of Classic Spanish Stories and Plays, adapted by Marcel C. Andrade. McGraw-Hill, 2001 (ISBN 0658011383). After finishing Spanish IV at my community college, I started Don Quijote with the aid of Tom Lathrop's `Don Quijote Dictionary.' Even with the dictionary, Cervantes was slow going, so I decided to retrace my steps and gain some reading practice with something simpler. ...

This masterful work is one of two volumes of incredible, gorgeous arial photography of two coastal cities in Italy. (The second volume is Atlante di Napoli.)Together, these works offer a deluxe view of Italy, condensed and reconfigured like a Modrian work of art. Each huge color photograph in the "coffee-table" sized slipcased volume is lush and greatly detailed--the colors, the patterns ...

Great workbook for getting your body ready for birth.
When my wife and I found out that we were expecting our first child, being that we both teach Pilates, we went straight for this workbook. Knowing the level of quality that Elizabeth puts into her woork, the book was the same. Top Notch. Thanks for the insight for a birthing plan too. Elizabeth and Sam... you Rock!

Expanded Capra Press Edition is best choice
This novel is of course a classic on bullfighting, but the prospective book buyer should be aware that the newer 1988 Capra Press hardcover edition includes an additional 34 page afterward by the author, written in 1987, that is comprised of the the author's true, first hand account of Manolete, the bullfighter considered by many to be Spain's greatest hero.

Enchanting
You'd think it'd be hard to integrate the stories of the Pied Piper, Jim Hawkin, Alice in Wonderland, Aesop's Fables, Pinnochio, Grimm's Fairytales, The Wizard of Oz, and probably more that I haven't caught yet...but the authors of this series make it look easy. No, not just easy. Mind-blowingly good. Their personal approach to these classic tales is to twist them sp that the new versions are ...

Goofy Things Said in Court
The book is a collection of things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down by court reporters. It must be tough to record some of these exchanges without laughing out loud. Fun reading for anyone, but if you have a friend who's a lawyer or a judge, it might be the perfect gift for them. Here are some samples from the book: ATTORNEY: What is your date of birth? WITNESS: ...

A History of Flamenco with a Bio of Carmen Amaya
This was a very surprising biography. While it did a good job on the life of Carmen Amaya, which as a biography is in the class of any I've read on musicians, it really is a history of Flamenco masquerading as a biography. I have a good knowledge of this Spanish art form from this book as I have for any other art forms that I was more familiar with before reading Mr. Sevilla's book. The book may ...

An excellent choice for a text in basic quantitative reasoning
The ability to reason has been an essential survival skill since humans became discernable as a species. In the most recent times, one specific area of this ability is the need to be able to understand, process and interpret quantitative information. In response to this need, mathematics courses in quantitative reasoning have been developed. This book is an excellent choice for such courses. ...

Very interesting and insightful RATING=10
A fun read for the flamenco enthusiast. This book really goes beyond Paco just as a guitar phenomena. Well-written and interesting. This book really shows the human side and how his career and talents developed from childhood, when his father recognized his unique gift as a guitarist. The book really show the influence of Pacos father and brothers and his family life- including early spankings ...

The second finest book ever written about the law.
Both this book and Mr. Sevilla's first work, "Wilkes: His Life and Crimes," are two of the best books I've ever read about lawyers and judges. They're very funny and -- I regret to say -- very truthful accounts of the way our legal system actually works. Get it. Read it. Enjoy it
