The Ice Age Returns is a fantastic look at Nashville's triumphant first season in the NHL. I am a huge fan of Nashville, and this book was a fantastic look at some of the games I missed. It has great photography, great reviews of the games, and great player bios. I'd suggest this book for anyone who likes the Predators.

Although the dialect rendering of Black English in these short stories may offend today's delicate politcal sensibilities, the reader should bear in mind that these stories were written in another century for a different audience. Get past that, and you have pure Plantation Tradition - the same tradition that inspired Margaret Mitchell and disgusted William Faulkner, James Branch Cabell, and Ellen Glasgow. The stories are simple, sincere and guaranteed to elicit emotion. Marse Chan is an American Classic, and No Haid Pawn has been likened to a tale of Poe. Get this, read it, and if you don't see life in Ante-bellum Virginia as it was, you can see it as Page thought it should have been.

You finished the the year with a bang! Two weeks off, or a light class load depending upon whether you are teaching nursery or day care and suddenly the new year is upon you. What do you do to add sparkle to the January curriculum? You reach for Imogene Forte's Jnauary Patterns, Projects and Plans. If you are lucky, you own the complete set of these handy monthly guides. Each month features check lists, calendar, stationary, and several well thought out themes. The delightful art work and format brings continuity to your curriculum. This series is a must for every early childhood teacher. January's book is especially delightful.

I am a recent transplant to Nashville (yeah, I play the guitar) and I was eager to read about the literary history of Nashville. There is so much more to the history of this city than Garth Brooks and Vandy fever. The editor has done a great job in seeking out "high" and "low"--the Fugitives to John Berendt--to present a well-balanced picture of this city. Funny, serious, old, and new--this is probably the defiitive history of Nash Vegas' literary scene.

A must have on the bookshelf of anyone who is a railfan of the Louisville & Nashville, as well as a great source of information for any model railroaders. The book contains a great deal of information on the diesel locomotives that powered the L&N trains all across the southeastern United States.

This is another book by the prolific railroad author Richard E. Prince who is well-known throughout the American railfan community for his books on the steam locomotives of several Southeastern railroads. These books, mostly long out of print and of limited initial press runs, are highly prized by collectors. Most of these volumes are now being reissued by Indiana University Press so that these books may gain a wider circulation and offer those who were unable to purchase a copy of the limited initial releases. I, for one, am grateful to Indiana University Press for re-releasing this book, as well as others on steam motive power of the Atlantic Coast Line and the Seaboard Air line rairoads (both if which I have previously reviewed ...)A volume on the steam power of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad is forthcoming.

The typical comprehensiveness of a Prince work is in this volume down to which six class J-4 2-8-2 Mikado steam locomotves got larger tenders in later years, not to mention the physical dimensions such as driving wheel diameter, cylinder bore and stroke, boiler pressure and tractive effort of each class of engine and date of disposition of each individual locomotive. If there is anything you would want to know about Louisville and Nashville Railroad steam power, it is in the book. It is my opinion that photographic clarity and quality is better than the usual Prince volume and does not suffer by comparison with other works of this genre.

This is a good book and a copy of it belongs in the library of any American steam locomotive enthusiast.

All nine books in this series are great. They are full of wonderful ideas, stories, patterns and such. My books were stolen and I will definitly replace them. I miss my books!

This great book lets you know all the skills that kids in grades 1 to 6 need and has definitions of a huge number of math vocabulary as well as tons of other useful stuff.

It's about time there was a book written about what the people of Nashville actually think about their city instead of reviews of where to go and what to see. Nashville Cocktail Napkins lets you in to the minds of Nashvillians and it's visitors. You might want to get a copy, that little thought that you jotted down just before you left the pub that evening might just be in there!

Alan Mayor is one of the top photographers in Nashville and I recommend this book to anyone who cares about country music. He's been on the scene for so long that most country stars think of him as family. He has a gift for putting his subjects at ease and it shows in his photographs.
