Good road selection, accurate maps and helpful text make this book an excellent guide to road bicycling in northwest Oregon. The forty-five rides listed nearly all start within short distances from Portland, Corvallis, Salem, or Eugene. Ride distances range from a short 11 miler to the three day 177 mile Oregon Coaster loop. Each ride in the book includes a clear map of the ride, a cue sheet/mileage log, an elevation profile, and a few paragraphs of descriptive text. This book was extremely helpful in planning a recent ten day bicycling trip around northwest Oregon. While I did not, strictly speaking, ride any of the 45 rides in this book, the information in this book contributed greatly in road selection and understanding the terrain. For example, in the Mt. Hood area, if I had relied on the Delorme atlas, our route would have included several gravel roads. Jones and Henderson's book, however, shows which roads in the vicinity are gravel thereby helping us avoid them. For those of you fortunate enough to live in northwest Oregon, this book would be an excellent way to discover some new rides. For the non-Oregonian, the book can serve as an excellent resource in route-planning. As a sidelight, I would comment that I have yet to find a book published by The Mountaineers that has not been uniformly helpful, whether the content is bicyling or hiking.

The best text in the field.

Throughly covers crop characteristics, plant enzymes, respiration, microbial populations, in silo effects of O2, water, common silage additives, and aerobic deterioration. Copiously referenced throughout, allowing for identification of the source paper.

It is from an European perspective, that of wet grass silages, but the principals are universial.

Recommended for researchers or grad students.

A friend gave this to me and I did not expect it to be so wonderfully wonderful! It taught a bit about Scottish history and local islanders treated 'outboarders' (orphan children sent to live with strangers - some got love, some got slave labour). It also showed me how army deserters were treated in the war when they were not actual deserters but mentally and emotionally wounded who simply 'freaked out'.
I loved the style of writing and it was easy to read and I got through it in one weekend (could not put it down!). Highly recommend.

My book describes the development of porcelain production in the Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad) region of western Bohemia. Through the declining years of the Habsburg's Austro-Hungarian Empire to the rise of communism in Czechoslovakia, a history of each factory exporting ware to the United States is presented which recounts details of factory owners never described in English literature. A description of each small town or village in the Karlovy Vary region that manufactured porcelain is provided. Details of the methods of exporting porcelain to the United States and the history of import businesses and their owners gives the reader an insight into how today's antique porcelain found its way from factory to home. Numerous advertisements of import companies illustrate the array of Bohemian porcelain sold in America during the late 1800s and early 1900s. As the demand for whiteware increased to satisfy the growing interest in amateur china painting in America in the 1880s, the Karlovy Vary area factories expanded and their export business grew. I describe the factory methods used to decorate "Carlsbad china", the name given to porcelain exported from this region in the late 1800s. American decoration of imported whiteware is also presented making the book an invaluable reference for those who purchase, sell, or who have inherited pieces of this china. In addition, the book should be of value to those interested in family histories of factory owners and decorators. Over 600 color photographs and illustrations demonstrate the rich variety of porcelain pieces exported to as well as decorated in, the United States during this time. An extensive presentation of American export dinnerware patterns from the oldest producing factory is featured in one of the book's appendices. Many factory marks are illustrated in color and are presented in a chronology following the description of each factory. A price guide is provided to give a relative value of one piece to another. If you have questions about Bohemian/Austrian porcelain please contact me and time permitting, I'll try to help you.

that is an amazing book that i ever seen it should provide a basic knowledge about the object oriented programming

I like this book cause the girl who got teased got revenge on the other girls. It had a lot of action in the book. You've got to read it!

The whole book was great. I love Shawn Stockman the best and hope he knows that he is the cutest guy in the whole world. From Molly, Shalom

Excellent book to read for people who are concerned with the approach and values in psychotherapy.

Carl Rogers reviewed many of his heart-felt issues in the subject matter.

The "client-centered" approach in psychotherapy cannot be ignored if we do believe that human being is more than just one class of object in the study of science.

Get one and find it out yourself! Easy reading and extremely insightful!

The Bobbsey Twins are helping out with their block party. One of the main events of the party--at least for the twins, is visiting their friends' collections. Their friend Jennifer Silverstein has autographs, Marty Peck collects bubble gum wrappers, and Kevin Frazier has a very interesting basball autographed by Johnny Kellogg. While the Bobbseys and their friends enjoy the block party, someone steals the baseball! The Bobbseys go on the hunt to catch the theif--they find a college pin, a footprint, and a slit in the collections tent, and they catch the crook in the nick of time. A must for any Bobbsey Twins fan, this book is exciting to the end.

Book #28, in this rare paperback series is just as good as all of the other Bobbsey Twins books out there. In the story, Freddie and Flossie Bobbsey enter a treasure hunt put out by Vance's Very Latest Videos, a new video store in their home town. But from the start, it appears that the contest is jinxed-someone is out there to put Vance out of business. Freddie and Flossie mistakenly discover the final clue and it's treasure chest underneath a tree near the high school, only to have the video stolen by Danny Rugg. But Danny Rugg doesn't get the prize-the video turns out to be a french movie, and not the final clue! Freddie and Flossie meet up with their brother, Bert Bobbsey, and examine the video footage that Bert has been shooting all day. There they find a clue, and start out a list of suspects. They suspect Mr. Vance's rival, owner of Lakeport Video, as well as Danny Rugg. But the case takes a turn when they discover that both their suspects weren't in the area at the time. Bert finds yet another clue around a statue in Lakeport, where the 8th clue for the contest is hidden. The pieces start to fit, and the person they are looking for is someone that no one would suspect! A must for any Bobbsey Twins fans, especially those of the New Bobbsey Twins series.
