In the spring of 1865, Major General James H. Wilson and 14,000 Union cavalry troops destroyed key Confederate industrial facilities in what had been, until then, relatively unscathed areas of Alabama and Georgia. Yankee Blitzkrieg: Wilson's Raid Through Alabama And Georgia is a vividly reconstructed account tracing Wilson's lightning run south and places the campaign within the larger context of the last days of the Civil War. Historian James Jones describes in detail the strategic background of the raid, covers the raid from both sides, and notes the economic significance of the industrial facilities destroyed. Jones' description of Wilson's capture of Jefferson Davis is the standard interpretation of what happened when Davis was taken by Union forces. Yankee Blitzkrieg is superb reading for Civil War buffs and students of Civil War history.

Yankee Bltizkrieg is one of the most enlightening studies of Wison's raiders in their finest hour. The book follows Wilson and his men from rain drenched northern Alabama to a triumphant capture of Confederate President Jefferson Davis in Irwinville, Georgia. It explores how Wilson effectively moved over 12,000 men for over 500 miles in the span of about a month. A feat which would have made Guderian proud! It is a must for Civil War enthusiasts and military strategist

Aaron's Awful Allergies is one of my favorite children's books, partly because it's very well written, with a cute twist at the end, and partly because my son has annoying allergies, so we can really identify with Aaron. I'd recommend this book to anyone!

It covers the basics and also it has on-line aspects and case studies through the Prentice Hall web site.

This book kept me wanting to turn the pages. The characters are real people we all know. Our neighbors. In a marriage she thought would be all she ever dreamed of, Ann finds out that the man she married is not the man she thought he was. A reality that many women face today. But the end of this marriage turns out not to be her release but a fight for her life.
This story makes you wonder who you should trust.
Gripping!

This is one of the best books on Adobe Walls, ( the other being the life of Billy Dixon). It takes you all the way through, from start to finish. The last half of the book is about the archeology that was done in the 70's. It gives a real insite into the hide hunters and store keepers lives during the six month's at the Walls.

First of all, "The Adonis Complex" isn't a official medical term but since body image is such a vast concern among ALL male age groups, 3 brave people have decieded to write and explore about male body obsession. I immediately decieded to read up on this book because I too have found myself facing the Adonis Complex. The book starts off at the Olympic Gym in Boston, Mass and examines male weightlifters. They cover everyone from the "built personal trainer" to the lean "skinny" guy exercising for a common cause. All these men have one thing in common; they all are insecure and they are obsessed with having and maintaining a great physique! This book covers steriod use and why people choose to use them, muscle confessions from REAL people with The Adonis Complex, and phychological disorders among males such as muscle dysmorphia. There is a section for parents to read on how to know, treat, and prevent body obsession in young boys and teenagers. You want to know what women REALLY think, the answer lies here. In conclusion, I felt releaved and a bit depressed when I realized how many of us men suffer with The Adonis Complex. Men especially read up on this book because you will NEVER see yourself and other exercise buffs in the same way again.

Buster Bear is a book of many lessons that we could use today. Little Joe Otter played a part in showing the need of not having things happen your way always. Grandfather Frog was a rock of common sense throughout the story.

Hello. I've got to say I've read a bit more than 1,000 books. Out of every one of these, This particular one is one of the best. I read books written by Thorton W. Burgess from my tiny school library back in 2nd grade. Sure, it's been 2 years. Who cares!!! I'll never forget how much I enjoyed laying down every night with a book from this great author. My favorite was the part when Jimmy Skunk finally sprayed Reddy Fox and gave him a taste of his own medicine. Here's a bit of advice: Keep this collection in mind!

I love this book! After I read it, I read all the other books in this siries I could get my hands on. Though short, great!
