Go To Your Destiny
Published in Hardcover by Hyperion (December, 2000)
Authors: Calvin Harrison, Alvin Harrison, and Andre Farr
Average review score:

THE BEST!
This is the best book I have read in a long time, actually ever! It is so inspirational and uplifting. I recommend it to anyone and everyone! My daughter who is going to college in the fall also loved it-would make a great gift for any teenager! Great confidence booster!

I wish I could give it more stars!!!
This book touches your spirit and is simply beautiful. The photographs are beautiful and hearing the twins in each of their own voices discussing their lives as twins; family life; their struggles and their triumphs is a work to behold.

They make you know that anything is possible and share the steps they've taken to attain their successes. Could not put it down.

For Those Who Are Scared of Facing Their Destiny
I read this book in one sitting. It felt like a deep conversation that I'd have with two old friends at two in the morning. Calvin and Alvin's voices intertwine throughout the book to give this incredible view of their life which in many ways feels like one life. They say, "This is who we are and this is what we have experienced and this is what we have learned." What I heard is, "Be who you are and experience what you experience and learn from it." Their story is told simply, with love and reverence. Their story is one that hands you, the reader, courage as if it is their gift to you. Their story encourages you to look within yourself and say, "Oh yeah, this is who I am supposed to be. How did I get so lost? How do I return to where I need to be?" Go to YOUR destiny. I will meet you there.


Hamptons Bohemia: Two Centuries of Artists and Writers on the Beach
Published in Hardcover by Chronicle Books (April, 2002)
Authors: Helen A. Harrison, Constance Ayers Denne, and Edward Albee
Average review score:

Hamptons Bohemia
"Hamptons Bohemia" is a lovely coffee table book, but it is much more than that. It is a well-researched, thorough history of the artistic life of the Hamptons from the 18th Century to the present day.

The illustrations were an important part of my enjoyment of this book. Almost every page contains a painting by a Hamptons artist, or an offbeat photograph of a group of Hamptons writers or painters. And the illustrations are beautifully done.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Finally, the Hamptons as they should be seen
It's no surprise that artists and writers were among the first to be inspired by the natural beauty of the Hamptons. It's also no surprise that celebrities, hangers-on, and wannabees followed soon after. What some may not know is that the Hamptons exerted their draw on the creative community long before Jackson Pollock and his pals put it on the map. This book eloquently conveys the allure of this magical place and the entertaining goings-on that occur when the world's finest artists and writers intermingle.

It reinforced the love affair with my home
I was given this book as a "must have" gift. So very true. The stories and photos are sublime. I'll never look at this place in the same way. Highly recommend it.


The Husband Book Guy's Guide To Marriage
Published in Hardcover by Andrews McMeel Publishing (01 April, 2002)
Author: Harry Harrison Jr.
Average review score:

If only...
If only every husband would pick up this little jewel and read it we'd all be happier campers. Mr. Harrison's wife is a lucky lady.

All husbands should read this!
Straightforward, funny and so true! Every husband should keep this book handy for a daily reminder. I gave The Husband Book as a gift to a new groom, but also plan on giving it to my in-laws who've been married for decades. It covers all the bases.

Wish my ex-husband had read it!
Mr. Harrison's book was witty, fun and SOOOO true! I'm sure his wife appreciates his love for her! The book was full of very true insights that were hopefully not too hard earned! Mr. Harrison made me laugh out loud and repeatedly reminded me that perhaps there are sensitive men out there in the world! I also read his book, "Father to Son," another extremely insightful book on raising boys. As a single mother of two teenage boys, I think Mr. Harrison is right on track. His words hit home in both books. I plan on giving these books as gifts to all soon-to-be or new husbands and/or fathers of boys. The books will make you laugh at his wit, sigh at his insights and make you wish he held seminars for husbands and fathers alike! Great books! Fun reading!


The Kentucky Encyclopedia
Published in Hardcover by University Press of Kentucky (July, 1992)
Authors: John E. Kleber, Harrison Lowell H., James C. Klotter, Lowell H. Harrison, and Thomas Dionysius Clark
Average review score:

Ky history buffs
Very informative book. Well organized.

Complete!
Being a huge fan of dictionaries and encyclopedias; I simply had to examine The Kentucky Encyclopedia by John E. Kleber(Editor), et al. Whilst, I am not a resident of the state of Kentucky ( I live in Atlanta, GA), I have a neverending thirst for knowledge and therefore I thought that it would be pertient for a person of my taste to read and furthermore examine the mentioned item. It starts out with a beatifully detailed map of the state with all the counties; it follows up with a list of all the people whom contributed to this grand project which was printed by the venerable University Press OF Kentucky. The editorial staff section is also a nice touch and shows how much work that is required to produce on of these encyclopedias. The table of contents is also well developed with the following sections: Foreward, Preface, Kentucky: A Historical Overview by Thomas D. Clark, The guide for readers, The kentucky Encyclopedia, Biblographic essay and finally the index. The The first three sections, i.e., the Foreward, the Preface, and the longer article, Kentucky: A Historical Overview by Thomas D. Clark, are all written in a scholarly tone without being stuffy or pretentious. Especially the Clarke article is fascinating in its coverage of the founding of the State of Kentucky. The guide to readers is also helpful for people that are not accustoimed to using encyclopedias. The entries themselves are well written and the font chosen does not detract from the information. For instance if one wants to know whom Charles P. Farnsley was then one should rread p.309 and realize that amongst many things he was the major of Luisville 1948-1953 and that he received his bar in 1930. The index is also a blessing in its ease of use and makes the searching experience very enjoyable. Overall, this is the encyclopedia to get if one is remotely interested in the state of Kentucky and I would definetely recommend it.

Spectacular Reading!
If you buy only one book about Kentucky, this is the book to buy. Every aspect of Kentucky history is covered in detail. This is a compilation of articles submitted by over 500 people on various topics ranging from prehistoric Kentucky to modern times. Each one is a facinating description of Kentucky history that reads like a short story. I never tire of reading this book! Is is a must read for anyone who has ever been to or lived in Kentucky.


Lightfoot the Deer (Dover Children's Thrift Classics)
Published in Paperback by Dover Pubns (April, 1998)
Authors: Thornton W. Burgess and Harrison Cady
Average review score:

Childhood Classic
One of the books that I most remember from childhood. This book would be especially of interest to children who have an interest in animals and nature. I read many of the other books in this series also.

Lightfoot the Deer
I know this book is old, but it's clean, and written well.

This is the favorite book from my childhood and I'm over 40!
This is a wonderfully descriptive tale of the conflict between deer and hunter from the deer's point of view. Lightfoot is a sweet and gentle deer. The description of the process of growing and shedding antlers is something I found fascinating as a child. To this day, I go back and read this book again every year.


Lillian Bassman
Published in Hardcover by Bulfinch Press (June, 1997)
Authors: Lillian Bassman, Martin Harrison, Catherine Chermayeff, Kathy McCarver Mnuchin, and Nan Richardson
Average review score:

CRIMINALLY UNKNOWN
if i could take only two photography books to my desert island, they'd be "Jeanloup Sieff : 40 Years of Photography," plus Lillian Bassman's relatively thin -- yet sensually-overloading -- volume. what a crime her work is not widely known. hers truly are impressionist photographs at their absolute finest, dripping with lushness and yet extreme fragility. they seem to float dreamlike around us and about us, offering a glimpse into that most rarefied world: the strange ethereal galaxy of a french fashion model of the 40s and 50s, bathed in moonlight and wrapped in jazz. god these are beautiful pictures.

A book of ethereal black and white fashion photographs
Lillian Bassman treats every photograph as though it were a canvas. With her selective toning and bleaching, it's hard to believe many of these images are photos. Her work in fashion was groundbreaking.

Stunning Fashion Photography! Puts The Zip In Your Zipper.
Lillian Bassman is a well known fashion photographer of the 40's and 50's. Her work is glamorous and visually exciting. The photos in this collection are a combination of photography and other artistic tools which give them an almost otherworldly feel. The book is oversized, which makes many of the pictures big enough for framing which is exactly what I intend to do. There is also a short biography of her career which continues through today. A very good buy overall.


Lost Lighthouses
Published in Paperback by Globe Pequot Pr (November, 1999)
Authors: Tim Harrison and Ray Jones
Average review score:

This is a very nice and informative book.
The photos are all B&W but that's due to the old photographs. Its a shame that so many of these lights have gone. Having visited 80 lighthouses I can appreciate just how unique they are.

A fine guide to lighthouse history.
This new volume to a classic provides stories and images of almost two hundred 'lost' beacons, gathering writings from before, after and during their demise and blending research with memoirs and accounts of the lighthouses and their history. A fine guide to lighthouse history emerges.

Beautifully done!
This is an attractive, well-written and thouroughly researched book that anyone interested in lighthouse history should have in their collection. Not another coffee table book with pretty pictures from the present day, this book features lighthouses that no longer exist. Besides being engrossing reading, it amounts to a plea for readers to help save the lighthouses we still have, especially those that are endangered for one reason or another.


The Naked Communist
Published in Paperback by Ensign Publishing Company (December, 2000)
Authors: Grant Von Harrison, W. Cloen Skousen, and Conrad Gottfredson
Average review score:

The Naked Lies of Communism Exposed!
W. Cleon Skousen's book 'The Naked Communist' is one of the finest works ever written on the subject of the communist conspiracy and should be read by everyone who loves the United States of America. Skousen does a wonderful job exposing the lies that communists have used since Karl Marx first wrote the communist manifesto. The book was written in the early sixties and it's amazing to see just how many predictions Skousen made that have come true. Skousen also points out the many flaws that has left the United Nations virtually powerless to stop aggressor nations. But perhaps the most interesting facts that Skousen sheds light on are the circumstances surrounding Roosevelt's concessions to Stalin and Truman's concessions to Mao. These 'Appeasers' made the same mistakes that Chamberlin made in his dealing's with Hitler in the 1930's. Many are quick to dismiss the spectre of Communism since the end of the cold war but America must remain ever vigilant and always beware the influences of the EXTREME left.

A Classic for Patriots: What has Happened to America & Why
Still as timely as ever. Still as controversial as ever (the liberals hate it). A timeless primer for patriots.

Ezra Taft Benson, in the '60s, when an Apostle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, said in a General Conference Priesthood session that "everyone ought to read this book." President David O. McKay made a similar comment.

At one point, this book was slated to become the priesthood manual for a year for LDS instruction.

Cleon Skousen used this text for a course at Brigham Young University.

That was back when the book was first written, when Communism was sweeping the globe, when American's were frightened by the prospects. But now, when the aims so skillfully exposed in this book are nearly to completion, people are so overcome by the propaganda that their repugnance to world socialism has been all but extinguished.

Now at BYU, in a required course for Poly Sci. majors, Stan Taylor methodically debunks Skousen's "Naked Communist" and Gary Allen's "None Dare Call it Conspiracy." Stan also sits on key policy-making boards for the LDS Church to determine the Church's stand regarding Communist nations. No wonder the Church has sunk so far in bed with the New World Order.

No, "Naked Communist" is not a best seller any more. Yes, "Naked Communist" is still one of the best books ever written about the communist conspiracy to establish world socialist government (e.g. New World Order). It is frightful to see how dangerously close they are to accomplishing their full objective.

But, in the end, as Skousen will happily agree, the Lord prevails. The reign of Satan's kingdom is transient. Meanwhile, it would be a good idea for the "Saints" to get with it or they are going to be toast.

outstanding!!
I read the 1962 publication of the Naked Communist. What is utterly shocking about this book is that in 1962 it published the current communist goals of that era, and if you look at it today 95% of them have been accomplished already!! What is utterly shocking, is that the outlandish concessions,( ie communisums fall) is part of the communist stradagey in 1962!! "Today, of course, we are not strong enough to attack...To win we shall need the element of surprise. The bourgeoisie will have to be put to sleep. So we shall begin by launching the most spectacular peace movement on record. There will be electrifying overtures and unheard of concessions. The capitalist countries, stupid and decadent, will rejoice to cooperate in their own destruction. They will jump at another chance to be friends. As soon as their guard is down, we shall smash them with our clenched fist."-- DIMITRY Z. MANUILSKY-- Stated in a lecture to the Lenin School on Political Warfare in Moscow 1931. This is found in the book. After reading THE NAKED COMMUNIST You will understand communist thinking and then you will be shocked that communist thought is alive here in the U.S., and how uneducated the public is about it!!!


Never Alone: A True Story
Published in Paperback by D'Marie Inc (January, 1998)
Author: Dinah Maria Harrison
Average review score:

A compelling story that held my attention from start to end.
This story was a compelling read and held my attention from start to finish. Patrick's protection of Dinah was enthalling. He was and is surely her most loving guardian angel.

An amazing story that reads like fiction.
I'm skeptical when it comes to this topic...but this book is written with such honesty and love that I think there is truth to the concept of Guardian Angels. I would like to read more books by this author.

Once I started reading could not put the book down.
Very fast paced book, that held my interest till I finished. The subject matter, of a young women devastated at the loss of her husband in a tragic accident and the intervention of her deceased husband as a guardian angel was well documented. The story was presented in a way, that it was highly believable. I hope to read more books by this author.
