Amazing! Being brought up in a Christian home where you do everything for everyone else except yourself this opened my eyes to a whole new and better way of thinking.

With over 100 short stories from America's most popular short story writer, this is ideal for an O'Henry fan, a fan of excellently crafted short stories, a person who appreciates fine writing or just someone who wants a great read.

It contains not only arguably his most well known works - "the Gift of the Magi" and "the Furnished Room" but tales from South of the Border, small town stories, shady business tales, stories of crooks and con artists, tales set in the Wild West and busy city streets. They can make you laugh, weep and feel the strings of romance sound in your heart.

Even if you've not read his work since high school, you will be enchanted by the way the stories have held up over the years - a work of a true master.

There are many collections of O'Henry on the market - this is one of, if not, the best I've seen. I recommend this book very highly.

This book has a truly excellent selection of quotes. There are no dud quotes or ones that leave you guessing. Lewis Henry has done an admirable editing job.

Matthew Henry outdoes himself with this book. One of the worlds famous authors of various commentaries, Mr. Henry brings to life the true meaning of the scriptures. His articulation puts the verses of the New Testament into everyday household words that makes it easy for anyone between the ages of 8-80 to understand. This powerful adaptation will send chills down your spine as he brings the text to life!

This book helps me a lot especially, who speak Englsih as second language. If I pick one of great features in this book that I have just finished, it has everthing in one bindle such as speaking and writing, vocabualries, grammer, and pronunciation all together. After I have found the book among many others in the same category, I decided to stick on this book for improving my overall English capabiliteis, good for people doing internation tradings as well as students.

This tiny paperback has taught me more in a couple of hours than I would have got from many days slogging through the typical five pound monsters offered to teach MS Office apps. I just love it! His step by step simple directions for working with mail merge alone justify the purchase. This is a simply wonderful book! I hope he keeps writing them!

This particular edition of the Bible called "Experiencing God" has been such a blessing to my life, not only it for the way it shows how to open our hearts and souls to what God can, is, and will be doing in our lives. What makes this Bible so recomendable are the footnotes, which not only guide you, but show you how He can be real in your life.

Este es el libro inmortal, que no requiere más presentaciones. Contiene la palabra de Dios, y su origen es muy singular. La Biblia fue escrita en diferentes idiomas (Arameo, Hebreo, Griego), por diferentes hombres, en diferentes épocas, en lugares distintos. Ha sobrevivido a la más despiadada persecución y crítica. Definitivamente, no es obra de los hombres, sino de Dios.

The original three volumes comprising E.C. Bigmore and C.W.H. Wyman's monumental classic, A Bibliography Of Printing were published from 1880 to 1886 by the British bookman and publisher, Bernard Quaritch and continue down to the present day as being recognized as a treasure house of information on books dealing with publishing and the printing arts. It was a truly ground-breaking catalogue that quickly established itself as the premier bibliography in this specialized field. The text is beautifully illustrated with hundreds of original woodcuts depicting portraits, printers' marks, topographical scenes, and foliated initials. Bigmore and Wyman's analytical descriptions provided a unique and clarion voice to their well-researched reference book. The one draw back to the 19th century originals was the absence of a comprehensive index. This omission has been corrected with this impressive and outstanding Oak Knoll Press edition with the inclusion of indexes of titles, subjects, and authors. A treasured addition to any dedicated bibliophile collection, A Bibliography Of Printing is an essential, core volume for academic "History Of Publishing" library reference collections as well.

One of the undisputed classic reference works for the old-time radio enthusiast, first published during the original wave of nostalgia over 25 years ago, "The Big Broadcast" lists many network and syndicated radio shows that ran in the timeframe of the 1920's-50s, more commonly referred to as "the golden age of radio". A great source for cast lists (if you can't put a name to a voice) with informative articles on genres and more technical matters (sound effects, "independent" networks, etc.). This type of thorough reference work is usually frustratingly hard to find for the old-time radio. This book has been out of print for years, and when you found a copy of the first edition, you could expect to pay premium prices, especially if the seller knew what he had. The introduction, by radio comedian Henry Morgan (not to be confused with the guy who played Colonel Potter on "MASH"), is a beauty.
