Big Activities for Little Hands: Fall
Published in Paperback by Good Apple (June, 1993)
Average review score: 

The Life Skills ClassroomAs a special education teacher teaching in a life skills classroom, I am always looking at art activies that are cute and can be easily completed. This book will be a great addition to my collection. I feel the activities in this book can be successfully used in my classroom in the fall. I am planning to purchase the winter and spring books. I have already copied several activities and am working on making samples. I use art activities to develop fine motor and focusing skills. I model coloring as regular teachers model writing. The activities in this book can be completed by my students with assistance. These activities can be easily and quickly assembled by myself, assistances, or other students in the school. Art activities are important to my students because completed art work is given to nursing home residents. I know with the activities in this book, the seniors will continue to enjoy our art work.

Jim Cartwright: Plays: 1: Road, Bed, Two, the Rise and Fall of Little Voice (Contemporary Dramatists Series)
Published in Paperback by Methuen Publishing, Ltd (October, 1996)
Average review score: 

TWO BY JIM CARTWRIGHTTWO IS AN EXTREMELY WELL WRITTEN PLAY, AND THE IDEA OF HAVING TWO ACTORS PLAYING ALL OF THE CHARACTERS, IS A VERY GRAND IDEA IF THE ACTORS ARE EXPERIENCED ENOUGH TO DO THAT. I PERSONNALLY BELIEVE THAT IF THE CHARACTERS ARE PLAYED BY DIFFERENT ACTORS, YOU CAN HAVE ALOT MORE COSTUME ETC. FOR THEM TO WEAR. THE BUILT UP BETWEEN THE LANDLORD AND LANDLADY'S FINAL SCENE IS EXCELLENT, BAECAUSE BEFORE THEY HAVE THEIR EMOTIONAL OUTBURST, THEY KEEP HAVING LITTLE DIGS AT EACH OTHER, UNTIL FINALLY THEY EXPLODE AND CAN'T TAKE NOT TALKING ABOUT THEIR SHARED LOSS. "TWO" IS AN EXCELLENT PLAY AND SHOULD BE READ BY ALL.
Jim Cartwright/RoadI was fortunate to be part of a production of Road a few years ago and it was a profound experience as much for the remarkable text and what it offers to the artists, as for the direction and extraordinary actors I was privilaged to be able to work with at the time. Jim Cartwright is an important and unashamed writer.

The best is "road"I was fortunate to star in a production of "Road" It is a truly magnificient piece of work, and must be read by all. Do not be discouraged by the language and strong tone it really adds to the realism of the entire piece

The Rise and Fall of Little Voice (Reissue ed)
Published in Paperback by Methuen Publishing, Ltd (October, 1994)
Average review score: 

A Little Voice Worth A Lot Of CreditA wonderful script with powerful characters and wonderful plot! This is one guaranteed to delight audiences, with an eclectic grouping of lower class Brits and one beautiful shining star, Little Voice. Cartwright has developed a play that is fun, light hearted and guaranteed to be enjoyed by audience's of all ages with 'guest appearances' by famous stars. The only problem with this script, is finding an actress with the ability to impersonate so many celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland. If possible, though, this script is surefire winner.

Custer's Fall: The Native American Side of the Story
Published in Paperback by Penguin USA (Paper) (May, 1992)
Average review score: 

An Odd Mixture of Plagiarism with Outright NonsenseDavid H. Miller's claim to have interviewed oodles of Indian survivors of the Custer fight is bogus. Most of the factual Indian material in the book is freely lifted from interviews recorded by other people such as Stanley Vestal. Even the Indian "portraits" which Miller supposedly did from life appear to have been done from photographs. It is significant that Miller waited until the last Indian survivor had died in 1955 before publishing. Like his spiritual descendent, Dee Brown, Miller writes nonsense while leaning on the works of more reputable authors...
His "original" material is sheer nonsense, like his contention that Custer committed suicide and that the powder burns were somehow "wiped away" by cover-up officers -- and that Custer's body was taken away on the Far West rather than buried on the field. (Oddly enough, he also claims that Custer got shot crossing the river...)
The book is authenicI have not yet read the book but am now ordering it. I noticed that a couple of the reviews from readers questioned the validity of the book. It is absolutely authenic. I was the Millers banker in 1981 when they lived in Rancho Santa Fe, Ca. and I visited their home on 2 occasins. Mr. Miller has a fascinating background which does include living with the indians and seeking out those who had fought Custer approximately 50 years prior to his painting their busts.His home was full of Indian artifacts which he refused to sell because they had been given to him and had special meaning. Mr. Miller was also employed on the sets of several cowboy movies as an Indian expert. He was about 75 years old in 1981 and I have lost total contact with him. I just want readers of this book to know that it is the real thing.
Custer's Fall By David Humphreys MillerHaving read several differing accounts of the battle at Little Big Horn, I find that no one, not even the Indians know what happened that day. Mr. Miller has done his best to present the views of the Indians who fought at the battle as factually as possible. I have not read a recent printing, (my book was printed in 1965, 208 pages counting lists of Indians interviewed or mentioned and the Officers of the 7th Cavalry). I have not been able to find anything in this book, or in any other books to make me believe that Mr. Miller has done anything other than present the facts as best as he could, and I highly recomend this book for anyone interested in the truth about what happened June 25, 1876.
