Crossing the Yard: Thirty Years as a Prison Volunteer2 reviews
Richard Shelton

University of Arizona Press, 2007

what a great book!
I encourage anyone wanting to know more about prison and prison arts to read this book. Shelton is such an honest reporter. He tells us about his initial morbid curiosity when asked to "read the poetry of a monster" - an attitude he's now ashamed of - and the desperation he felt when witnessing unexpected horrible consequences for some of his prisoner students as they became poets. He tells us ...

Holy Smoke: The Big Book of North Carolina Barbecue2 reviews
John Shelton Reed, Dale Volberg Reed

The University of North Carolina Press, 2008

BBQ Odyssey
Bob from Baltimore: I am a native of Baltimore, Maryland; a state that was the most northern of the southern culture and most southern of northern industry, I have a foot (or toe) in both. I first sampled Carolina Barbecue (BBQ) in the mid 1970's after a sister-in-law married into a North Carolina family. Initially a culinary culture shock; that defied my notion of BBQ, but over the years I ...
  
  











  



  
The Shelton Gang: They Played in Peoria1 review
Bill Adams

Xlibris Corporation, 2005

The Shelton Gang Revisited
While slightly disorganized in the earlier chapters, this slim book by a Peoria newspaperman is still an entertaining read and contains some new information on the notorious Shelton brothers of Illinois. While not neglecting their Twenties feud with Charlie Birger and Thirties battles with the Cuckoos gang in East St. Louis, the bulk of the book deals with their latter days in Peoria. Photo ...
  
  











  



  
Money Meltdown1 review
Judy Shelton

Free Press, 1998

More US citizens need to read this book
First, the only reason I did not give this 5 stars is because I think the book could have been more concise. I don't fault Ms Shelton for this as much as I do her editor. That said, her points are well made. She starts off with the "Legacy of Bretton Woods". Then discusses (at length) both what conditions were like in many of the countries at the time as well as what went wrong and why Nixon ...

An extensively detailed chronicle which explores all sides and aspects of a cherished and popular figure in ...
  
  











  



  
Finding Angela Shelton8 reviews
Angela Shelton

Meredith Books, 2008

Finding Ourselves
Reading Finding Angela Shelton was like reading my story. The details of what happened might vary, but the thoughts and actions were ME. It is beyond empowering to know that someone else experienced something similar and they have the same thoughts and fears. I used to think I was alone and that no one could understand, but there is something about another person sharing who has been ...
  
  











  



  
The Wrecked, Blessed Body of Shelton Lafleur5 reviews
John Gregory Brown

Quill, 1997

A Gift from the Author
I finished reading this for about the fourth time a few months ago. For Christmas, I bought a box of these -- 50 -- to give to friends. I am very, very popular this year. The editorial reviews on this book just scratch the surface. It is an absolutely compelling story, the characters actually live alongside you, the writing is music and the message is profound. It's as "worthwhile" as Thomas ...
  
  











  



  
Reinventing ""The People"": The Progressive Movement, the Class Problem, and the Origins of Modern Liberalism ...
Shelton Stromquist

University of Illinois Press, 2006

In this much needed comprehensive study of the Progressive movement, its reformers, their ideology, and the social circumstances they tried to change, Shelton Stromquist contends that the persistence of class conflict in America challenged the very defining feature of Progressivism: its promise of social harmony through democratic renewal. Profiling the movement's work in diverse arenas of social reform, politics, labour regulation and "race ...

Kissing Games of the World: A Novel9 reviews
Sandi Kahn Shelton

Shaye Areheart Books, 2008

This book saved me!
I've read all of Sandi Shelton's books, and this one is by far the best. I read it on a day when it was dismal and rainy, and I gulped the book down along with pots of tea. By the end of this novel, I felt like I could face the world and smile while doing it! The main characters, Jamie and Nate, have great banter and a terrific sexual chemistry. The plot zips along, and the kids are adorable ...
  
  











  



  
What Comes After Crazy: A Novel36 reviews
Sandi Kahn Shelton

Three Rivers Press, 2006

Everybody has a complicated life...
I loved this book because of the way the main character, Maz, deals with her own complicated life with humor and love. She just keeps plugging along, even though she was raised by a less-than-adequate mom and has to learn how to cope as an adult. I even loved Madame Lucille, crazy and wacky as she is. All the characters came alive. I don't think this book is a farce at all! It has a lot to say ...
  
  











  



  
Climb to Conquer: The Untold Story of WWII's 10th Mountain Division Ski Troops2 reviews
Peter Shelton

Scribner, 2003

Another Good History of the 10th...
First off, let's dismiss the "Untold Story" bit which is part of the book's title. The fact is that the 10th Mountain has received its share of books and "Climb to Conquer" in that respect, is no different. That said, along with McKay Jenkins "The Last Ridge" and Bob Bishop's and Flint Whitlock's "Soldiers on Skis" you have what I think is a wonderful tryptych on America's Mountain Soldiers. ...

Manhunter: The Life and Times of Frank Hamer3 reviews
Gene Shelton

Berkley, 1997

well-written and alluring to the on-going mystic of the char
The places and range that Frank Hammer ranges are of great historical curiosity for anyone living in the area that he operated. I can appreciate not only the danger but also the carisma he must have possessed to align forces with the forces dela Mexico. In the East Texas escapades Frank operated in many well known towns whose citizens may not even be aware that he was operating in. It is ...
  
  











  



  
Deadly Gamble: The First Charlie Parker Mystery (Charlie Parker Mysteries)5 reviews
Connie Shelton

Intrigue Press, 1997

Very good, can't wait to read the next one.
Charlie Parker is the character in this story and is a female accountant. Her brother is the private eye, but out of town. Naturally Charlie can't turn down her ex-best friend who also stole her fiance away 10 years ago. She unexpectantly shows up begging for Charlie's help. Charlie really doesn't want to do this, but all those tears and her own curiosity about her former fiance, how can ...
  
  











  



  
Battle of Jericho (Shelton Heights Series, Book 2)9 reviews
Kendra Norman-Bellamy

Urban Books, 2008

Battle of Jericho
Battle of Jericho is truly an inspiration to the Christian community. I am a great fan of Kendra Norman Bellamy and this work of art truly shows the extreme talent that has been bestowed up her. Each time she surprises me, with yet another piece of great work.
