If you can find a copy of this book get it and add it to your personal library. It explains why there are times in the faith walk the path is not always clear-and yet that is still part of the walk!! You will begin to realize that what seems like a scary or challenging time in life can one of great growth potential. A wonderful book from a great mentor.

The book was enjoyable not only for my son but also myself and my husband. This will become a cherished book just like Pooh books. The illustrations are perfect with the written words. They are colorful and well done. All in all, I will be buying more of this book to circulate to my family located in other parts of Canada.

I'm considering turning a hobby into a career, and so don't know how professional photographers would rate this book. I thought it was very informative and readable, and especially liked the numerous references and addresses for getting additional information on a particular topic. Chapters include careers in photojournalism, advertising, freelance, travel, government, and medical photography. The book also discusses digital photography, the internet, and the fact that current technology is changing how photographers do their jobs.

I found Dr. Marchiori's book to be well thought out. It is full of usefull CLINICAL information that will be of benefit to anyone who utilizes radiography in their health care practice. It is a must to have on your reference shelf.

Colette Peters is a true artist. Her cakes, which I've seen in person, are remarkable. Her books are very thorough and concise. I am no artist, but I have made several of her cakes and they all turned out great! She is able to explain the cake-making process so that even I can understand how to do it. I have all her books and love them all!

Les McLean has produced a wonderful book to inspire darkroom and lightroom black and white printers of every ability. He is a great photographer and master printer who is happy to share the secrets of his trade with the rest of us.

McLean is an ex Geordie miner and rock and roll player who has spent 30 years honing his skill becoming one of the foremost black and white printers. He learnt his art by his own trial and error. He now teaches in England and the United States and has, at last, been persuaded to write his first book. He debunks many of the esoteric theories and concentrates instead on the essential practical techniques needed to make expressive prints.

This book was revelatory. Its central theme is to learn to adapt our seeing by pre-visualising how our photographic tools see and record what we chose to photograph. He first demonstrates how to produce an expressive negative and then leads us to techniques to turn it into a fine print.

Although most of the book deals with traditional methods, Les recognises that the two techniques can work together to take our image making into new directions. He shows how simple it is to use and configure Photoshop to produce digital negatives and apply darkroom techniques to produce sensational images.

This is certainly the best black and white book I have read. It has blown away the cobwebs, witchcraft and confusion of other manuals. I eagerly await his next book.

This book tells you exactly how to make gunpowder from manure, wood, baserock and many other simple around the house and free from the land type materials. I found this book very useful and informative.

The Don Mclean Guitar Songbook is a must have for anyone wanting to learn how to play the guitar like Don.

The book also has 13 of Don's All time Classic Hits in One complete Package, Songs Include, *Castles in the air, *American Pie, *Vincent, *Crying and *If we try.(Just to name a few)

I was fascinated to read about the life of this woman who was truly a wonder of the American theatre - at various times, she was an actress, director, producer, playwright and songwriter (whew!). Her roles in Candida and Madame X are still remembered today but for some reason there seems to be little out there about her today (and if you know of more, please email me). I loved this book and NOT just because it was the only book I could find on this woman, but also because the photos, bibliography, chronology and index make a very well-rounded and researched publication. Well worth the expense, one of my favorite books about little-known, but fascinating, figures of the theatre world.

"Drawing from Life" is a treasure an artist, teacher, and drawing lover finds once in awhile. It is very logically layed out. I enjoyed variety of illustrations, the learning exercises, and glossary. Alas... some negatives: the price, the quality and detail of the reproductions, especially the anatomy ones. The book needs to be bigger in size and make use of detail enlargements to show the beauty of the drawings
