Average review score:

The Necessary Guide for all serious boulerers
This bouldering guide is truely remarkable. The hand drawings add a unique character to the book not seen in any books of this kind to date. The information here is written from a top notch local's perspective. The classics you find in this book are well mapped and described in text. Other books attempting to copy this original guide have not nearly the overview map quality and descriptive precision seen here, A must buy for any true boulderer.

Francisca and the Boys
Published in Hardcover by Vantage Press (May, 1900)
Authors: Alfred Arroyo and Alfred Arrroyo
Average review score:

Fantastic Francisca
Francisca and the Boys is the true essence of growing up in a hispanic family during the depression years of the 30's. This book sets you in real life, as if you were actually living with the characters. The Delmonte family is gently unwoven with love and support that gives the reader a true understanding of what "family" really is. Reading this book to the end is not enough, you'll want more of Nick, Davy, and Francisca......


Gateway to the West: Designing the Passenger Terminal Complex at Denver International Airport
Published in Hardcover by Images (March, 1900)
Authors: Images Publishing and Jessica Sommers
Average review score:

Gateway to the West : Designing the Passenger Terminal Compl
WHAT A JOY TO SEE A PUBLISHED MASTERPIECE ...OF ONE OF THE WORLD'S FOREMOST CUTTING EDGE EXAMPLES OF CIVIC ARCHITECTURE.

Denver International Airport obviously derives it's superb design FORM, from it's context in the native locale and region of the majestic 14,000 foot high mountains of DENVER. "Gateway to the West" contains the best published architectural photography anyone could expect.It could be argued that the informed reader would make comparisons or analogies of Denver airport with Sarinnen's Dulles Airport or his soaring TWA airport at JFK, in N.Y.

The success of the airport's execution by Master ARCHITECTS Fentress & Bradburn (& winters) sets the standard for future airports world-wide.

In fact we see that this internationally world-class Architectural Firm has already accomplished a self-fullfilling prophecy, by accepting several more world-flung Airport Design comissions in the Middle East and Far East, as well as in the U.S.

Architect Curtiss Fentress & his "gang" know what they're up to, in creating majestic uplifting roof structures to symbolize air travel. This publication cements the architect' ideas into a philosophy of "FORM FOLLOWS VISION", rather than the more prosaic "FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION", and the publisher deserves credit for devoting 200+ pages of how private expression (on the drawing boards) becomes public expression (to millions of passengers who arrive at "Gateway to the West" ).
