I liked Hawk woman dancing with the moon a lot , because it tells you a lot about indian culture and also gives practical instructions if you're interested in moon-ceremonies , for example . Tela Star Hawk Lake talks about her own life (how she became a shaman , different ceremonies , her family ,...) , the life as an indian today and hundreds of years ago , her tribe and tells legends . All in all , I can really recommend this book to anyone that is interested in indian culture ! It's novel and informative book at the same time .

A solidly practical guide written expressly for bewildered lay readers, Health Insurance Made E-Z covers almost everything anyone needs to know ranging from basic terms and definitions, to how managed care works, Medicare and Medicaid, choosing the right plan, tips for health insurance shoppers, coping with insurance claim trouble and much more. Simple, down-to-earth explanations and a wealth of details and advice make Health Insurance Made E-Z an absolute "must" for health insurance buyers everywhere.

I used this book to help plan a backpacking vacation in Glacier National Park during summer 1998. I was very satisfied with the information and descriptions provided by Mr. Molvar. As I knew little about the park beforehand, planning this trip would have been nearly impossible without this book. Contains text, simple maps, elevation gain/loss charts, backcountry campground info and ratings, advice, warnings, etc. I can not say enough good things about this guidebook!

I grew up in a town on Lake Champlain and took a Champlain Valley History course in high school. If you're going to own a book about the history of this area, make sure you own this one. It's a classic. This book was written in the late 1880s and describes in detail the settlement of various communities along the lake (and interactions between Indian inhabitants and French settlers), the building of military forts, and the pivotal battles on and near the lake during the Revolution and the War of 1812. The fact that Lake Champlain was a crucial area in military history for this nation means that a history of the lake will have a lot to say about military engagements. This one does. Each chapter begins with an overview, e.g. "1777-1783 -- Burgoyne invades the United States -- Evacuation of Ticonderoga by General St. Clair -- Battle of Hubbardton -- Surprise and Indignatio n of the People -- Vindication of St. Clair and Schuyler -- Lincoln's Expedition against Ticonderoga -- Surrender of Burgoyne -- Retreat to Canada -- Operations on Lake Champlain from 1778 to 1783." The book includes an appendix with letters between Benedict Arnold and other generals in the Battle of Valcour. This might not be the book to start with if you're new to Lake Champlain and its history and you're not a history buff. But if you have any attachment to this geographical area or if you are interested in the historical details of, say, the Battle of Plattsburgh or Fort Ticonderoga, pick this one up.

just wanted to draw your attention to the fact that the editor is PETER Lake, not Paul.

This brief, intelligently written, yet thoroughly accessible biography of Wordsworth offers a sensitive and thoughtful account of his life, his circle of friends and family, and of the historical context that influenced him. The author does a particularly good job of weaving her clear and entertaining text together with excerpts from Wordsworth's poems and other writings. Excerpts from Coleridge, Dorothy Wordsworth, and other key figures are also included in a way which seamlessly complements the narrative. The book is supplemented by historic illustrations of the Lakes District where Wordsworth lived and worked, and of the people who formed his circle. A satisfactory map is also included, although an even clearer map would have been welcome. Color photographs of the Lake District would also have been a plus. Nevertheless, this is a superb book which provides a very interesting, sensitive, insightful and entertaining overview of Wordsworth life and work. I highly recommend it.

This book that help for me know the historical Buddhism in the America. And it also helps to the student to find information about the time of Buddhism in this country...

Awesome, I would recommend it highly to any fisherman who wants to catch more fish. It worked for me.

Living in upstate NY, the Hudson is a majestic presence flowing by on it's way to the city. I'd been to the source, and parts here and there, but this book was an amazing opportunity to travel the entire length of the river, see the sights and get to know the many characters of the river. This is one of those great books that make you curl up and escape....and wish you were right there in the canoe!
