Villard, 2007 Dangerous to Read This to Dogs This book is an endless source of levity and promotes enough loud laughter to scare your dog out of the room! It's so great I've already gotten 3 other folks hooked on it. My husband and I were reading one of these stories aloud the other day - the one about "How to Make Your Owner Look Like an Idiot" while Scottie slept at our feet. Or so we thought he was sleeping. The next day on his ...             The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven110 reviews Sherman Alexie Grove Press, 2005 That's How I Do Life Sometimes By Making The Ordinary Just Like Magic... -Sherman Alexie Halfway through this book I emailed the friend that bought it for me to tell him how much I was loving it. I then asked him "How the hell am I supposed to review this?" His reply was to explain that "He needs a new star, a category for 'Holy Sh!t, that one hit me hard.' But they don't make the Holy Sh!t category on Amazon." That pretty much says it all. The truth is I was blown away by ...             Armored Thunderbolt: The U.S. Army Sherman in World War II Steven Zaloga Stackpole Books, 2008 * Hundreds of photos, including many never published before * Riveting accounts of armored warfare in World War II * Compares the Sherman to other tanks, including the Panther and?Tiger * Author is a world-renowned expert on the Sherman tank and American armor Some tank crews referred to the American M4 Sherman tank as a "death trap."

Night Shade Books, 2008 Zombie-tastic! Yes, some of the stories that are in the book have been published before in other compilations, the editor even states this in the beginning, however, 'The Living Dead' is an absolute must-have for anyone who is a fan of zombies.

As usual, the author manages to impart new data and fresh insight even into familiar subjects, such as tank battles in the Ardennes. This volume focuses on actions ...             First You Fall: A Kevin Connor Mystery14 reviews Scott Sherman Alyson Books, 2008 A dalliance with murder... Skimming a few reviews posted here on Amazon for this book, I noted that several handled the summary portion quite nicely. I'll skip the summary, then, and speak directly to the merits of the book.

Haslam Trine Day, 2007 New Orleans in the summer of 1963, behind the scenes of the JFK assassination, this book is one-of-a-kind If you don't want to be challenged, or you want to believe the Warren Commission Report that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and unaided in the assassination of JFK, or that New Orleans and the events taking place there played no part in the assassination, don't bother to read Dr Mary's Monkey, for it will disrupt your complacency and demolish your assumptions. This book is a serious attempt ...             American Flagg! Volume 1 (American Flagg!)3 reviews Howard Chaykin, James Sherman, ... Image Comics, 2008 THIS is how you make an "Omnibus"!

It felt wonderful to be in the hands of this graceful, stately storyteller again. I have never been much of a Civil War buff, but this novel has made me long for Ken Burns' cellphone number. As usual with Doctorow, The March presents real events as lived by a cavalcade of fictional and real characters. Pearl, the girl who finds love for the father who is also her owner, is one of Doctorow's ...             Your Work Matters to God6 reviews Doug Sherman NavPress Publishing Group, 1987 God is interested in every aspect of your life Many Christians think that God is only interested in the `spiritual' things like going to church, evangelism. For many years, I suspect such views lack something but couldn't prove why.
