50 Hikes in Western Pennsylvania: Walks and Day Hikes from the Laurel Highlands to Lake Erie (50 Hikes Series)
Published in Paperback by Countryman Pr (January, 2003)
Author: Tom Thwaites
Average review score:

A great source of suggestions
This book is by far the best trail guide I've ever used. (a) The directions to the trailhead are accurate to the tenth of a mile; (b) the directions on the trail are also very accurate; (c) each trail description has its own topo map; (d) the trails feature what the book says they'll feature; (e) the trails are fun!

The trail lengths in the book vary between 1-hour hikes to all-day affairs, with plenty of all types; also, the directions usually suggest other places to go or variations to shorter or lengthen the hike.

If you live in Pittsburgh or the area, buy this book.

An Afternoon in Waterloo Park (Great Lakes Books)
Published in Paperback by Wayne State Univ Pr (T) (May, 1988)
Author: Gerald Dumas
Average review score:

Mr. Dumas says in words, thoughts that we only think.
A wonderful little book of his past on the east side of Detroit during the 1940's. His muted love and affection for his mother and her family (originally from Germany but relocated in southern Ontario) brings back many poignant memories. Touches a nerve that is hard to translate into words but Mr. Dumas has done a wonderful job exploring his inner soul and the one's around him. Just a great "little" book of thoughts and poetry, emotion and strength of character, love and remorse-all the things that we all have felt in our lifetime.


Airport report : Salt Lake City International Airport, its development, 1968-1976 : vision, persistence in the face of obstacles, and support produced the master plan propelling the Salt Lake City International Airport into the 21st Century as one of the nation's finest airports
Published in Unknown Binding by B-25 Press ()
Author: Murray A. Bywater
Average review score:

The best airport administration history book I've read
...P>This book does not contain his fascinating war stories, however; this is an autobiographical perspective on the management of a major airport, and therefore appeals to a fairly specific audience--airport administrators. There is some value to the average business administrator, though: General Bywater points out some of the pitfalls that any admin might face, particularly one involved in municipal or state government. He also tells, in an entertaining fashion, how he and his crew managed to get past the snags and build SLC into a first-class airport.

This book is not as gripping as Bywater's other publications, simply due to the nature of the material--to the average reader, war stories tend to be more exciting than airport management. However, those in the airline industry may find an interesting perspective within the pages of Airport Report.


Alaska's Evergreen Lodge on Beautiful Lake Louise
Published in Paperback by Trafford (July, 2001)
Author: Barney G. Sabo
Average review score:

Far from the comforts and stresses of "civilization"
In 1969, Barney Sabo decided to resign from his position as a secondary school principal and move to a remote part of Alaska with his wife and reside in a wilderness hunting/fishing lodge almost 200 miles outside of Anchorage. Alaska's Evergreen Lodge On Beautiful Lake Louise is the biographical story of how the move was made, the life style changes that ensued, the challenges and adventures experienced so deep into nature's wilderness and far from the comforts and stresses of "civilization". Alaska's Evergreen Lodge is highly recommended reading for anyone who has ever dreamed of chucking it all and going "back to nature" to enjoy a simpler life.


Along the Seashore (Wild Wonders Series , Vol 3)
Published in Paperback by Roberts Rinehart Pub (May, 2000)
Authors: Ann Cooper and Dorothy Emerling
Average review score:

Learning in a story format
My children (4 & 5) enjoyed reading a section of this book each day. Each animal is introduced through a brief story which captivates their hearts and minds. Following the story are various facts which provide a springboard for conversation and further reading. It can be read again and again. Since the selected animals are ones you may encounter on a beach trip, they can observe what they have read about.
