Arthur Boyd at Bundanon
Published in Paperback by Academy Editions (UK) (May, 1994)
Authors: Janet McKenzie and Arthur Boyd
Average review score:

An Inspirational Deed by an Inspirational Artist
This book Arthur Boyd At Bundanon sent me off on a wonderful journey of discovery. Although I had been aware of and admired the art of Arthur Boyd, the celebrated Australian artist, I did not have much idea of him as a person. This book by Janet Mckenzie, is very well researched, and is one of those books which stand up to several revisitings, over several years. The story it reveals, of a truly extraordinary man, an artist with an amazing insight into the modern world, and a passionate love of his homeland, Australia, is skilfully told. Arthur Boyd towards the end of his life decided to gift his most most beloved property, home and studio, named Bundanon, to the Australian people. The purpose he had in mind was to provide an artist's haven. This beautiful place in Australia, beside the Shoalhaven River, has been a huge source of inspiration not only to Arthur Boyd, but also to many other noted Australian artists. As well as the insight into the creative mind and soul of Arthur Boyd that the text of this book so sensitively and respectfully gives, there are a number of very wonderful reproductions of many of Arthur Boyd's paintings. These are well chosen and placed, and not surprisingly comprise the heart of the book.

A Must Have for the Orthopedic Therapist
This book applies the McKenzie principles to the cervical and thoracic spine in the same organized, research-oriented manner as McKenzie's book on the lumbar spine. It is a great reference for evaluation and treatment and makes classification of injuries much easier (especially important in our limited visit world). Explanations and pictures are very helpful. It should be in every PT clinic!

Published in Paperback by Minnesota Historical Society (March, 1990)
Author: William A. McKenzie
Average review score:

A reading jewel !
William McKenzie is a former Northern Pacific Railway employee who has created this delightful narrative of the NP's dining car history, complete with numerous priceless photographs of gorgeous dining cars created by the Pullman Company and furnished with the finest of mahogany, crystal, Irish linens, etc. This is not a dry recitation of historical facts; the author has a gift for story-telling. A wonderful bonus to this historical jewel is a list of 150 NP recipes personally tested and modified for the reader by the author's wife. There is also a modest list of drinks and cocktails which the author assures the reader "Have not been tested"! This book will appeal to far more than the typical railfan; all those who enjoy good writing, especially of historical Americana, will find this a delightful discovery.


Early Fur Trade on the Northern Plains: Canadian Traders Among the Mandan and Hidatsa Indians, 1738-1818
Published in Paperback by Univ of Oklahoma Pr (Trd) (November, 1999)
Authors: David Thompson, John Macdonell, Charles W. McKenzie, Franaois-Antoine Larocque, W. Raymond Wood, and Thomas D. Thiessen
Average review score:

Excellent
This is a well written and engaging look into the importance of the Mandan and Hidatsa Indian villages as a pivotal point in trade systems during the late 1700's through early 1800's. Being located along the Missouri River in present day North Dakota, the Mandan/Hidatsa Indians traded horses, robes and furs to Canadian Fur Companies in return for guns and ammunition. They would then trade these goods for other commodities from various Northern Plains Indian Tribes, who previously may have traded with other tribes or the Spaniards further south. In part one, the authors give a lengthy but excellent and relevant chronological introduction as to the fur trade history of this geographical area. Part two includes five journals (or excerpts) of some of these Northwest Fur Company traders' first hand accounts depicting life as it was: John Macdonell's descriptions of the Indians, geography and trade in the 1790's; David Thompson's narrative describing his harrowing 1797 journey from Fort Assiniboine to the Mandan villages in the dead of winter; Larocque's two narratives, the "Missouri (1804)" and "Yellowstone (1805)" Journals, the latter of which, in the company with Crow Indians, he may possibly have been the first white man to descend the Yellowstone River, pre-dating William Clark by more than a year. The final narrative is of Charles McKenzie's four journeys to the Mandan villages (1804-1806), the first two in company with Larocque's expeditions. This is a fascinating read for fur trade enthusiasts and/or those whose interests are in early western exploration.
