This is by far the greatest book i have ever read in my life as an overview of the modern middle east- it was truly excellent. Elizabeth Monroe captures the heart of all the people that were big, rather dirty, smelly animals and gives them a bath, metaphorically speaking. It was a true work of genius, studying idiots of the political world of the past like Mr. Sinsiuyb;iwub;ofv.

This is a must have book for every Marilyn Monroe fan because it goes through in chronological order of Marilyn's films. It shows what critics thought of the films in the years that they came out, the songs that Marilyn sings or dances to. Along with an extensive review of each film's plot, climax,a nd characters.

Dick Weinert has contributed much to the study of Coast Artillery defending the Chesapeake Bay. The story of Fort Monroe is well thought out and on target. His research is outstanding and he tells the story easily and for all interested in Fort Monroe to understand.

Amazing story of a woman who was raised in tent, home schooled until 13, went to grade school where she was put into the senior class, entered college graduating at 16, was not allowed to enter medical school unless she married. She married a cold fish but had three children by him because she wanted children. She sold religious tracts to "buy her way into medical school". She was subjected to immense prejudice from the teachers and the students in medical school, but was one of two out of nine female students to graduate. When she began her practice, the school sent her entire salary to her husband who promptly used it to further his own ends. She became a legend in her area of practice and eventually became renowned in a large region of the USA for her diagnostic abilities and her humanitarian practice of medicine. She eventually divorced her husband and married a man who appreciated and dearly loved her. At her death one of her young patients had achieved fame and a high post in the United Nations and flew from Rome to attend her funeral. A great read, will hold you in its grip from cover to cover.

The authors treat each of Earth's Systems in a very straightforward manner, using clear and illustrative graphics. They also do a fine job of tying together Earth's systems and processes into an interrelated package, as opposed to simply a series of disconnected chapters. I use this text in my Washington Online course. Al Friedman, Everett Community College

You may find this story very scary. Not advisable for scaredies. As usaul, Poe is up to this type of mysterious stuff.

Great book for everybody who is new to the field of geology. It provides a lot of background information which even goes beyond the subject, but which is not less interesting. Everybody beginning to study earth sciences should have a copy of it on his/her bookshelf.

An excellent little book and quick read. The book is broken into two parts. The first part, Hero-Sagas, is, except for the first story, an abridgement of the Nibelungenlied. It tells the story of Siegfried and Kriemhild and their terrible ending. The second part, Folk-Tales, is filled with short stories where the main message seems to be that the cunning and quick witted will always win, especially against the proud. Not exactly the best morality message, but it is fun to see wits in action.

As the Greek Food Host at Bella Online, I refer to many Greek cookbooks. Greek Cooking For Everyone is one of my favorites. The recipes are very traditional, yet the ingredients are readily available to American cooks. The first few pages of the cookbook offer background information on the staples of Greek cuisine, and tips on stocking a Greek kitchen, which is very helpful and informative. This cookbook is divided into menus rather than types of food (i.e. 'meat menus', 'fish menus', etc.), so that each section provides a meal complete with appetizers and side dishes. Most recipes are for four or more people, so if you are looking for recipes for two, you will have to adjust the measurements. Although this is not the type of cookbook that includes professional, color photographs of Greece, it is a very handy reference and a great source of traditional Greek recipes.
