I have been trying to order this book for a while but each time something went wrong. I am happy to say I finally received the book and in record time from one of the best sellers at Market Place. I was surprised how small the book was with little or no photos showing the project or even the step by step guides. Granted the receipes are simple and easy to follow written guidelines I just feel cheated if there is no pictures. Overall I am going to rate the book a 4 because of the simplistic nature of the receipes I am excited to start trying them. I sell soaps on the side (when I am not book selling) and I find some of the best receipes are 3-5 ingrediants and takes 5 minutes to prepare. The hardcover is nice and tight the book itself is small but text size is normal.I did not realize that a big portion of the book (half) would be on candlemaking. While interesting it is not what I needed. There is approx. 33 soap/bath beauty receipes of which I will use about 75-80% of so I do like the book. I would of given 5 stars but they lost one star because of the lack of Pictures. (Dj has a nice one. I recommend you cannot go wrong-Too simple for the professional soaper, I am just thrilled it doesn't call for all the complicated ones I have to do. As a Gift I would Highly Recommend.

When i began to read this book did not know what to expect. I was pleasently surprised with a good balance of action, suspense and Romance. All in all i thought it was a good read.

I ran across this book shortly after it was published under a different title (The Runaway). It is a very enticing western. It has a good plot that you want to follow, to see if things work out in the end. And, no, it is not all hunky-dory. There are consequences to all actions and Mr. Morris tries to show that. I liked it well enough to see if there are any other books in the series.

I really liked the humanity of this character. Reno has been through the mill and doesn't just bounce back like in other westerns. He is not perfect but he is searching. He thinks, he chooses for good or bad and when he falls, he learns while getting back up. Read this under previous title (The Deputy).

The hero's parent's are destroyed in a mining strike, and their son goes off on a mission to bring down the mining corporation that killed them. Good storyline, and more blood than Saving Private Ryan. A great read, if you can find it.

I have just finished reading this book. I found it very hard to put it down. It should be MANDATORY reading for every citizen of this country. The depths that both Clintons and Gore sank to is disgusting. Power mad lying scoundrels that covered their corruption neatly with the help of the lapdog Attorney General ,Janet Reno. Both Clinton and Gore should be in prison. I can't help but to wonder if the true story of the Clinton years will ever be told. Thank God for authors like David Limbaugh who are not afraid to tell the truth and lay it before the public. The entire Clinton- Gore years were filled with lies, perjury, double-dealing and coverups. They made this country the laughing-stock of the world. Clinton's exit from the White House was true to form, I'm just amazed that they didn't take everything that wasn't nailed down. I hope that we will see the return of honesty and dignity to the office of the President of the United States, something we sure didn't have with the Clinton_ Gore administration.

Author David Limbaugh chose a great title for this worthy book. Lord Acton's 1887 statement proves true again. Rather than simply a rehash of the sins of Bill Clinton by another member of the "vast right-wing conspiracy," this is a fresh perspective of the Clinton years, focusing on the Reno Justice Dept. It's enough to make one mad all over again. It's one thing to have the various scandals dribbled out one-by-one over two presidential terms, but to read about them over the course of a few hours shows the magnitude of the corruption.

Absolute Power focuses Limbaugh's laudable research talents on the following Clinton/Reno debacles: Waco; the tobacco wars; Billy Dale and Travelgate; the Ken Starr smear campaign; Linda Tripp trashing; the perversion of executive privilege; campaign finance scandals; the Bill Lann Lee recess appointment; clemency for terrorists; and Elian Gonzalez. He touches on Zippergate surprisingly little. He doesn't need to. Clinton's legacy isn't his dalliances with Monica Lewinsky in the Oral Office; it's a severe degradation of constitutional rights.

Limbaugh shows clearly that in this administration, the ends justified the means. America suffered eight years of creative lawyering--the price we paid for installing two unethical lawyers in the White House. The Reno Injustice Dept. proved time and again it was willing to eat its own, including anyone unwilling to march in lockstep with Clinton's political gamesmanship. The prime example was Ken Starr and the Office of the Independent Counsel--an extension of her own department. She tried to thwart his investigation at every turn.

On smoking, Limbaugh will have you rethinking the unprecedented Clinton/Reno attack on the tobacco industry, which was purportedly unleashed to save lives and money. He reveals one obstacle the Justice Dept. had to overcome: the "ghoul defense." A Harvard study "concluded that since smokers die prematurely they save the federal government billion[s] each year in health care costs ' smoking has apparently brought financial gain to both the federal and state governments, especially when tobacco taxes are taken into account ' smokers do not appear to currently impose net financial costs on the rest of society." Where tobacco could be treated so, liquor, hamburgers, and chocolate could soon follow.

An interesting point he makes on the allegation by Clinton apologists that everyone cheats on campaign finance is: "While Democrats insisted Republicans were equally guilty of fund-raising abuses, the Democrats ultimately were forced to return some million[s]--more than thirty times the amount returned by Republicans."

Too many non-fiction books are authored by upper-crust-college graduates flaunting their language skills with gobs of ten-dollar words. The result can be tedious reading. Not so with Limbaugh and Absolute Power. This is clear, concise writing that virtually anyone can get through. It's easy to believe that if all his allegations are true, somebody would have done something about it; which is exactly his point: Reno, the one responsible for doing something, did nothing but continually run interference for Clinton. This is a tremendous historical record. --Christopher Bonn Jonnes, author of Wake Up Dead.

What Limbaugh has the inside story to the Clinton administration? What Limbaugh has an insight into what Janet Reno knew? What Limbaugh has taken an objective view of the past 8 years? I know you're thinking Rush, but you may be surprised to find out it's his brother David and this book may also be a surprise.

When I first started reading this book I thought another book that tells about the scandals and the spin machine from the beltway, and the book does that, but it also brings to light some very interesting information that may have and has been kept from the public until now.

Limbaugh shows how the Administration put itself above the law of the land, what the justice department knew and kept secret, what Janet Reno knew or didn't know as the White House turned information over to her.

You'll read about how Elian Gonzales was a political pawn in a masterful chess game run by Bill Clinton, how the Clinton administration ignored Senate confirmations and tried to shut up and down big tobacco.

You'll read and understand how people's lives were ruined if they disagreed with the Clinton Administration, the cover-ups and other scandals like Monica, Vince Foster and White Water.

Overall this is not a Clinton bashing book but rather a book about what bashing the Clinton's did during the 8 years in power. This Limbaugh may have finally hit the nail on the head.

I'm not "in love" with this book, but I certainly liked it. A sort of crunchy find-yourself-in-the-Nevada-woods narrative that borders on overly optimistic (while hiding out in the woods to escape her old life, Luna finds, naturally, a wonderful and off-beat man that just happens to live in a tent nearby. Oh, and a son of course. Who, despite his cavities, may just fit in just fine). Despite all this, however, Doris Betts managed to keep my interest with strong writing and interesting observations from the characters.

I picked up the hardcover edition of this book simply because I liked the cover - the paperback edition's photo isn't nearly as interesting.

This book has some very dynamic, well thought-out scenes - although it does tend to flounder a bit at times. The ending is also a little too predictable and anticlimatic. But the characters are compelling and there's just enough excitement and suspense to keep the reader on edge.

I look forward to reading more of this author's work.

I stumbled upon this book and now eagerly anticipate reading every word Doris Betts has ever written. Thanks to a cast of fascinating characters and a plot with more twists than a tornado, I was completely enraptured. This is one of the best novels I've read in my life: unique, satisfying, and absolutely unforgettable.

From the eyes of a beginner this book is great because most of the recipes don't cost a bundle or contain harmful chemicals like lye. (I dont think I want to experiment with lye just yet). This book also has ideas that are inexpensive and easy to follow. "Die-hard" soap makers that believe in only absolutly made-from-scratch recipes will most definatly not apprieciate this book. Many of the recipes start from store bought soap and shampoo which in my opinion does not reduce the quality of the end results. The things in this book are great for presents. I've actually have been asked by one of my friends if I would sell some of the things I make at her store!

Kelly Reno's book is great for beginners. It has simpler recipes where one doesn't have to buy all types of exotic ingredients. I especially liked the section on melt and pour soap recipes using glycerin soap. This is a great project for kids and for those who are a little hesitant to work with lye!

You can really be creative by using Kelly's base recipes and customizing them to your exact tastes for color and fragrance. We made all our Christmas gifts to rave reviews and the all natural ingredients are safe for the kids to use.
